PCMCIA to ExpressCard Adapter

Ξ May 10th, 2007 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Geek, Wireless |

My DuelAdapter PCMCIA to ExpressCard adapter arrived today. I’m hoping that this will allow me to use most of my old PCMCIA cards with my new laptop, which doesn’t have a PCMCIA card slot. I was going to buy an older laptop that still had a serial port and PCMCIA card slot for testing, but then discovered this not-so-small adapter. My initial testing of a Dell TrueMobile 1150 series card is working (hacked with the Orinoco Gold firmware), but not my Ubiquiti 300mW a/b/g card. You can get the TrueMobile 1150 cards on ebay cheap. I also have a few PCMCIA LAN cards and some other PCMCIA WiFi cards to test yet. I need to see if my software tools work with this device too. Stay tuned.
