Has anyone used the new format ExpressCard in their notebook? They are supposed to be faster than CardBus and PCMCIA cards.
I'm thinking about an HD/Analog tuner for my notebook. Specifically the AVerTV Hybrid Express. (http://www.aver.com/mpd/hybrid_express.html)

I believe there was a slot in my old HP (which im getting rid of). Never tried it out though since i never had a card to use in it .... Let us know how you find it ?

I haven't used an ExpressCard yet, but I _have_ had a client almost bugger up an HP laptop while trying to force a PCMCIA card into an EC slot (despite the obvious size difference). He broke the dust cover clean off.
He was visibly displeased when I told him his PCMCIA card wouldn't work in the EC card slot.

I wouldn't mind picking up a GPS devices for my ExpressCard slot on my Vostro, but I haven't seen one yet.
