Re: Zaurus C3200 and connectivity/interfaces?

you could indeed use a usb-serial device, which is commonly available 
retail

if you do use a CF-PCMCIA converter, which is surely possible, although I 
have never seen one (i've only seen converters to use CF as PCMCIA, not 
the other way around), be aware that most wireless cards sold today are 
cardbus, not pcmcia, and would not be compatible with compact flash.
I use an 802.11b card (prism2, works great with kismet), so I can't 
recommend any G cards
