Christopher - until we had an ADSL connection at home and at work, I 
was using the PC card slot for my ISDN connection to the internet.  I 
also  have a pc-card (from TDK, a GC6100 GSM modem) that I use in the 
slot for connection to my (old and still barely working) Nokia 6150 
phone.   This is my mobile/on-the-road internet connection.  This TDK 
card sits permanently in the slot now.
Yesterday, whilst in London for the day, I was able to connect to the 
internet, using this card and my phone, to upload the email that I 
had written on the flight there from Geneva.   This kind of 
connection works first time every time (when cell strength is good).
