hmm. that's the first true PC Card format gps i've seen.. most are CF and come w/ a PCMCIA->CF adapter. they claim it uses "latest low power GPS technology from Garmin"

just a warning...all of the CF gps's i've tried (at 7 different models) had lower performance than external units, even with an external antenna connected. I think it's probably due to the higher RF interference it gets from being inside the computer.
