I've been waiting a year for the Delkin Cardbus32 to support Macs and that has just happened, which is great as I never got around to replacing my firewire card reader. One thing I noticed is that the IBM PCIMA card reader I got with microdrives no longer shows up on the powerbook. will have to enquire

From Delkin:

"we have new drivers on our website for the cardbus 32 adapter. We
have dropped the beta drivers from our website. The hot swapping issue
has been resolved."

my test:
download 20 NEFs to desktop folder

Jessops USB2 card reader to G5 - 75secs
Delkin cardbus32 to Powerbook G4 500 - 50sec

this is a useful speed increase, but as my firewire reader is broken I don't know if it's faster. It's certainly a lot lighter to carry around.
