looked for this card around Christmastime at two stores in the S.F. south bay
and couldn't find it. Finally, an employee acknowledged that there had been
such a card but thought it had been disco'ed "because it didn't work too
well". bought a cheap usb card and firewire card at fry's. still haven't
gotten the inland brand firewire card to work. giving up on it.
good luck, charlie
