We just purchased a new HP laptop form the DW and what I thought was a PCMCIA slot is actually a PC Express Card slot. My HP utilizes the PCMCIA card and we have the Cingular data card for internet connectivity on the road.

Is there a USB type PCMCIA card reader that we could use on the HP with the PC Express Card slot? Technology is changing faster than I can keep up with it.

Just posted about that. Will have to buy express slot EVDO card. Seems like the best solution at the moment.
