I have tried to find such an adapter too, with no luck. It seems that 
non-CardBus PCMCIA is a 16-bit bus, and is therefore not directly 
compatible with the OHCI and UHCI standards (which are designed around 
32-bit PCI). I don't even know if PCMCIA can handle the full 12 Mbps 
that USB requires.

I would like to get USB working on my Multia, but I suspect that it 
can't do CardBus (its manufacture date predates the CardBus standard by 
a few months, IIRC).
