    I just noticed on the Zepto site that there doesn't appear to be an Express card slot on the 6615 whereas there is one on the 6214...Is there a reason for this, or is there actually one on both?

    Thanks.

    There's an Express Card slot in both 6214W and 6615WD.

    I'm sure those cards are good:

    TerraTec Cinergy DT Express Diversity => 2x DVB-T TV card
    Belkin SATA II Card => 2x SATA II card
    Belkin FireWire Card => 2x FireWire card
    Belkin Combo Card => 1x USB 2.0, 2x Firewire 800 card
    Belkin F5U250ea => 1x 1GBit LAN card

    Great, hmmm? :D

    Why isn't there an ExpressCard²PCMCIA-adapter available?

    Ah, thanks. So does it have PC-card AS WELL AS Express Card?

    I'm really just interested in Express Card cos of that eSATA goodness it's got going on.

    No, it's only got Express Card. The Znote 2425W is the only one of our machines that have both PCMCIA and Express Card capabilities.

    Really? Because I downloaded the datasheet a while ago and I think it was saying about PCMCIA and not about Express Card, which caused this confusion.
