I only have so many USB ports and it seems like they are almost always in use. While PCMCIA and Express card slots are always empty. +1 on tom's comment, too. I've seen other companies shipping these with an USB-to-Express adapter,making it a 3-1. Allowing it to be used on a desktop unit if need be. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[H4MM3R]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 31st 2009 12:14AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sierra Wireless AirCard 402 plays PC Card and ExpressCard roles]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/30/sierra-wireless-aircard-402-plays-pc-card-and-expresscard-roles/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/30/sierra-wireless-aircard-402-plays-pc-card-and-expresscard-roles/</guid><description><![CDATA[Sierra Wireless newest AirCard will be RS-232 only.
