there was a post a few weeks back about a low-power ethernet adapter, pointing at http://www.techweb.com/wire/story/TWB19980726S0003 which very roughly describes socket's pcmcia product. thought i'd add some details i found surfing. http://www.socketcom.com/ethprods.htm#LPE has the more detailed spec sheet on the LP-E PCMCIA adapter. the additional weight & power information are cool: 40mA / 60mW, 25.5g/.9oz. msrp $179. even more interesting though is http://www.socketcom.com/cfnew-1.htm, which describes their 3.3v compact-flash form-factor -- 41.4mm(l) x 42.8mm(w) x 5mm(h) -- ethernet adapter (19mA / 63mW !!) and rs232 (8mA / 26mW !!) products. $149 for the ethernet, $169 for the serial. retailers in north america page http://www.socketcom.com/rna.htm has other pricing and distributor information. great news is that these are consumer-oriented products -- single-unit purchases expected! has anybody seen/tried pc/104 compact-flash adapter hardware? useful pointers appreciated. n@ -- Subcription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with subject of "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" toWear-Hard Mailing List Archive (searchable): http://wearables.ml.org
