Victor,
I'm not sure if ALL PCMCIA CF Adapter will work with the Newton.
My personal experience is that a Type I wil NOT work by a Type II will. (I'm
not sure what's the difference - I'll test it out again to see if that's
still the case. - BUT the Type I does work with my Wallstreet so I'm a bit
puzzled about it)
Link to my Flickr page with a picture of the Viking PCMCIA to CF Adapter
Type II that I use.

Link to where I purchased mine from, 'eCost' (not connected with them at all
- just wanted to point out that they have great deals at times for certain
items that I wouldn't want to pass up - they are cheap as I look at it now
it's only $6.94 ... I think it was $7.99 when I purchased it...
