[PB] using the Airport 802.11b slot for something other than wifi??

[COCCORP at aol.com]

Hi, all U Powerbook peoples...

Question for all of you (us) Pimso & Titanium affecionadoes -- can the 
dedicated, 16-bit Airport port underneath the keyboard in the Pismo and on the 
bottom of the Titanium G4 (& in the Clamshell and Dual-USB iBook G3s) be used 
for anything other than a 802.11b wireless card?   In other words, can it 
be used to read a CF card, either alone or in a PC card adapter....

...or, is the word "dedicated" to be taken literally?

Thanks,
