Hi. The ambicom card should work in the back slot if you remove it from the
pcmcia adapter. The first problem you mention with not being able to use
the microdrive will be a difficult one. How many users have these drivers?
Is it worth sacrificing other funcitonality for a few users and for a drive
that may be becoming more and more difficult to find?
These are questions that would need to be considered.

Hi folks, whilst I agree that a USB port would be nice, if the pcmcia slot
was removed, the micro drives I possess wouldn't be operable because they
don't fit into any pc card reader. Also my Ambicom wireless card goes into
the pcmcia slot only. As an unemployed person who, due to my disabilities
cannot work, I don't have the finances to buy a new machine with lots of
new expensive hardware. To have a new USB port fitted on the BN BT or QT
would cost over a thousand pounds and you would be without your machine
for some length of time, and we know how louzy Pulsedata/Humanware are
about fixing or adapting machinery!
Cheers, Steve
