Apparently, combo-cards will ONLY work as a modem. I remember that
flying around the list a while ago and I don't recall anyone ever
getting a combo to... well, combo-fy.

Farallon Ethermac and Ethermac/Etherwave (this one also works in
Newtons) cards work very well in PowerBooks. The Etherlink III is
*supposed*
to work with a hacked version of the Farallon driver. I haven't tested
this
myself since I was lucky enough to find a Farallon. The 3com
XJAEM336/XJEM336 combo card is supposed to work in PowerBooks as well,
but
so far I haven't been able to perform the correct voodoo. I've managed
to
get the modem working but I must not have the chicken-entrail-swinging
routine down right for the ethernet portion.
