NTLK Network lan cards and PCMCIA

Hello fellow Newtoneers,

Well, I am happy to say that with all your help I was finally able to A) get
my modem card working and B) get Newt's Cape operating on all cylinders. This
Newton PDA really rocks! Its a shame that Apple pulled the plug on it--it
would have really given the Palm world a run for its money.

Anyway, I am looking for bigger and better ways of connectivity. I have 2
questions... the first is, what is the difference between PCMCIA type 1 and 2
cards? I was shopping for ethernet/lan cards and some said it would support
one type or the other. What does my faithful little Newton 130 have? (or can
support)

My second question is, can I use an ethernet card (RJ-45 connecter) on my
newton? and will it work with Newt's Cape?

If so, I would like to hear from those of you that are successfully using
such a card. Please tell me the brand and model because I have no idea what
would be compatible with my MP130.

Bondster!
