Using a PCMCIA Card With An ExpressCard Laptop: The AirCard Conundrum

Yeeeah... That's A problem

You just got paid and its time to get that new laptop youve been dreaming of. So you head off to the store, pick up your new (insert brand name here) laptop and bring it home to check out your spoils. Youre thrilled when everything works great, until you try to plug in your cellular internet PCMCIA card. Then you realize that the card wont fit! Whats to be done?

ExpressCard Muscling In

This is a scenario that is becoming more and more common as computer manufacturers roll out new laptops using the newer, faster ExpressCard standard. And along with the advent of this new technology comes the demise of the PCMCIA standard, which will become more and more rare. Although the ExpressCard offers significantly faster speeds and a more compact form, which will help to keep laptop design slim, the rapidity of the rollout has caught ExpressCard manufacturers struggling to keep up with demand as consumers seek ExpressCards to replace their existing PCMCIA cards. Perhaps the most prevalent issue is that while there are now ExpressCard versions of most PCMCIA cards, there are few, if any, viable alternatives for EVDO, EDGE, or GSM cellular internet PCMCIA cardbus cards.

EVDO wireless router

There are several potential solutions to this issue. The first would be to buy a specially designed stand-alone router with a cardbus slot specifically intended for a wireless internet card. This router takes the cellular signal from the aircard and converts it into a WiFi signal that can be picked up by a standard 802.11b/g wireless adapter. The 3G Phoebus is in this class of router.

ExpressCard to PCMCIA

Another solution is to use an ExpressCard to PCMCIA adapter. This adapter plugs into your available ExpressCard slot, and allows you to connect your wireless aircard (via an attached cable and receiver) to your laptop.

usb to Cardbus adapter

The best available solution for this problem is to use a usb to PCMCIA adapter. This adapter consists of a usb cable that is attached to an adapter that is designed to allow you to insert your cellular PCMCIA card. Simply plug the usb port into your computer and do a simple install to take advantage of wireless internet with your new ExpressCard laptop.

An Overview of Golf Clubs

Many brands of golf Clubs are on the market today, in also many different prices. Chossing the right clubs can make the difference between a birdie and a bogie. Let's have a look on some of the most common manufacturers:

The ping Golf Club

For a golfer, one of the most important things that he should examine is his golf club because according to experts, it is one of the main reasons why they do not hit the ball. This is the exact reason why the ping golf club was born.

Karsten Solheim was the one who invented the ping golf club with different intentions. The story has it that Karsten was practicing golf but he could not hit the ball so he started to practice up to the time that he began to design and experiment his very own putter so that he could play better through it. He thought of designing his own putter without a figment of a though that it would be known worldwide. By the year 1959, his putter experiments had evolved into 1A design. While deciding for the name, he heard the sound of his putter and declared proudly to his wife that he would name the putter from its sound, hence the name ping. At that same year, sports Illustrated published an article in their August issue regarding the ping golf club dubbing it as a musical putter.

The callaway Golf Club

The callaway golf club is one of the most popular and also reliable types of golf club in the market today. There are so many people (like you and me) that are fascinated with golf today and it is no wonder why the callaway golf club is now in the peak of success in the world of golf clubs.

The callaway golf club is headed by Ely callaway. He bought half of Hickory Stick USA and renamed it callaway Hickory Stick USA. After purchasing it, he decided to hire the best people that would be an instrument in supporting his dream of callaway golf club. He hired Richard C. Helmstetter to be the Chief Club Designer and this as others would say is the point of no return. The designs for callaway golf club are truly revolutionary and innovative which is why the callaway golf club is dubbed as the type of golf club that is unique and also high-performance kind golf equipment. After that, Ely callaway renamed his company into callaway Golf and then relocated from Cathedral City, California to a sleepy seaside town called Carlsbad, which is just north of san Diego.

The taylor Made golf Club

taylor Mades metalwood golf clubs boast with features that surely makes each golf club a hit to golfers.

The Custom Fitting Golf Club

Every golfer's physical capability and swing is distinctive. Many of today's best golf clubs can be custom fit for lie angle, shaft type and length, grip type and size. Custom fitting is the process for tailoring a golf club to suit your personal swing and those golf clubs involve several easy measurements and a quick self-assessment of your game. This custom golf club has become more than a temporary fashion so even the non-professional golfer might take a look at it.

Whatever your level, with a custom golf club the aim is to ensure that if you do make a good swing, the club will be square at impact and should produce a straight shot.
