Mobileplanet = $506 including PCMCIA adapter.

Onvia.com has roadwarrior and deluxe kits for $442 and $457 shipped,
respectively. The Onvia.com deals are good:

Roadwarrior kit = IBM Microdrive + Microtech ZiO! (a sub miniature
USB adapter for all CompactFlash cards) + PCMCIA adapter 

Deluxe kit = Microdrive + (from Microtech's website):

<snip>
The Deluxe Kit consists of the award winning USB CameraMate
reader/writer for transferring data quickly and easily from the Microdrive
to a USB equipped PC or Mac. The CameraMate is also equipped with a
dedicated SmartMedia slot which can be used to copy data from any
SmartMedia equipped digital camera or MP3 players to the higher capacity,
faster performing, diminutive disk. Also included in the package is a Type
II PC Card adapter for using the Microdrive as a file transfer and back-up
device with most notebooks. Software from Ixla, Voyager Communications,
and PowerQuest complete the package.

The roadwarrior and deluxe kits are creations of Microtech International,
a distributor of microdrives. PR describing their kits:

Onvia.com is currently "Out of Stock".
