Review on this PCI to PCMCIA Adapter :

Overall, this device is top notch. Installation is a breeze, and the support for the new Cardbus specification allows for the latest in PCMCIA technology to be used in your home PC. The fact that the device supports hot-swapping of cards is also note-worthy, as this will prevent down-time when installing a new card, as powering down the system is not required.
