Unfortunately, it's not that easy with a PCMCIA card. You can try your luck
with a Windows notebook, 16-bit PCMCIA slot and one of the numerous
[k]racking applications mostly found on google or usenet.

NewtSMS will allow you to send/read SMS's, receive & make calls using the
Nokia HDC-6D handsfree set (if you're lucky enough to find one). Beware that
the card has to be kept powered on to receive a call -- your MP will drain
in 15/20 minutes!
Christian's modem script will allow you to use the card as a modem inside
the MP. Faxing should be possible.
