Hey, I'd like to pick up a USB PC Card, and perhaps one that has a FW combo (not that big of a deal if it's just USB) for this Wallstreet I just picked up. I already have a WiFi PC Card and that's where trouble starts... I need to be able to use both at once (of course) and the WiFi card, like most wireless PC Cards has an "antenna" that sticks out and it a bit thinker than the rest of the card. SO, I need a USB card that either has a connector that hooks on with a wire (if that makes sense) or protrudes DOWNWARDS (since the WiFi card protrudes up).

If that doesn't make sense I will draw a picture. :p Any advice on which card would work for me?

Sorry, I don't have one and can't recommend one, but I figured it would be worth it to say that that's called a 'dongle'. That might help you in your search. :)

I actually typed dongle and replaced it with a more descriptive phrase... thanks though!
