The "add-on" card section of Newegg has some examples, in the "PCI Express to Firewire"
section.

For example, this is the Syba SD-PEX-NEC4F card. This is an example of a "bridged"
card. It consists of a PCI Firewire 1394a chip, plus a PCI to PCI Express x1 bridge
chip.

This Belkin F5U504 is a "native" solution, as it uses a single chip. The
chip supports three 1394a ports, and has PCI Express x1 for a hardware
interface.

There are also cards with 1394b (different connector, and supports
up to 800Mbit/sec).
