PCMCIA Card for USB 2.0 port

Hi,

Is there anybody, who knows a PC card for USB2.0 port working with PowerBook G4 Titanium? Also, how often I have to use an external power supply to use a PC card for USB 2.0?

Thanks,
Nagayoshi

I had my USB disk connected, so I thought I'd try those file movements again. I think my (so-called) USB 2 memory stick was the restraining factor, as the results are much different:

200 files totalling 115MB: USB1 292s USB2 35s
sigle 148 MB file: USB1 207s USB2 18s

which gives for the single file a more respectable 64Mb/s.

More to the point, I get better than 5x the transfer rate from my camera when using the USB2 on PCMCIA rather than the native USB. Firewire on the camera would be nice ...
