Please take a moment to give me your opinion as to whether any of these might work. I realize that I need to confirm the exact model # first. Here's two maybe, tell me what you think: The first one says: "3Com 3C589C/D/ET PCMCIA Spare Cable (Dongle) network 10baseT" Sure sounds like this could work for both the C and D cards? <http://www.ht.com.au/Scripts/xworks.exe?PART:30742#Tof> This gives a 3Com part # of 3C-PC-TPS-CBL, a 10BT-only dongle that matches with the 3CCE589EC card according to this: <http://www.3com.com/other/downloads/products/en_US/cabling_products.doc> Another: <http://www.peaksource.com/item.jhtml?UCIDs=647998%7C659206&PRID=520022> This last one sounds like what I have as well, but the picture (if accurate) looks "wrong" and the part number I "don't recognize". -David -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
