Hello Airmailman!

I decided to get an ExpressCard/54 (PCIe). My T60 Thinkpad
seemed to accomodate one ..and I didn't realize ExpressCard
support was there.
The new card is equipped with three USB3.0 ports.
Seems to be a good stop-gap measure for now.
The USB3 speeds on the card are about double what I was getting
on the USB2 ports. That's good enuff for now.
A> Spend the other $395 on gas...
No kidding. :O
