Laurent, Just get a Compact Flash Adapter. CF cards don't draw much power, the adapters are cheap (~$10 US), and should work in any Type II PCMCIA Card slot. I use one made by Simple Technology, works great in my Lombard G3. OS X doesn't even require any driver software (not sure about OS9 drivers). Very convenient. HTH.
