Kevin the Computer Broker had some network combo cards in July that he was hopeful about.



Rik, would that be these ones (description fronm thr web page of the computer broker)

NWK50A* Used - Xircom 10/100 Cardbus PCMCIA Network adapter and 56K Modem - 6 Months 
Warranty
$89.00

Yes, that sounds like it. Looked like it would need to use two PCMCIA slot heights to fit in the laptop though. The upside is that standard cable jacks are built in (much cheaper than special laptop modem/NIC cables to replace).

Do you know for sure if they work in linux?

No, sorry. Kevin seemed confident, at least for someone else to test one & find out..
