Yes, ditto; couldn't live without PCMCIA access to Compact Flash, as well
as Capsure card for analogue video. No access to SCSI either on the
iBook. Had yet another go of one yesterday though and admire its
compactness and lightness, although I'm still not stepping down from a
14.1" screen, even though the iBook res is XGA.
