Greetings, Just thought I'd let people know. I recently purchased a Delkin eFilm ExpressCard 34 since it copes with SDHC cards. This is an ExpressCard 34mm wide and would fit into either the 54mm wide slot I have, or the narrower 34mm slot popular on Apples. This particular card happens to be USB based. The ExpressCard stanard allows both USB 2.0 and PCI Express cards. Much to my pleasant surprise, it just worked. I plugged it in and that's all it took. Well, that and loading umass. I had looked high and low in the Linux source tree for special code to enable it and couldn't find it, so I thought 'why not buy something to test it out.' Brad Davis was kind enough to send me some money so I could purchase this card (and another). The PCI Express based cards will be harder to support, since we need to grow hot plug pcie support first... Warner
