Re: [NTLK] 2 slot PCMCIA eMate?

Yes, and no.

The ROM on the eMate only expects to have one PCMCIA slot, but with the proper
ROM modifications the hardware could be made to work. The Voyager chipset can
have up to 4 PCMCIA slots attached to it I'm told, but the trick is getting
them all on the board.

The biggest obstacle is the ROM issue.

Responding to Grant Hutchinson's comment:
