Wireless card that fits inside pcmcia slot

I am looking for a wireless card that fits all the way inside the
pcmcia slot so I don't have to take it out of my laptop to avoid
breaking it. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Yes it does. 3Com do one http://www.3com.com/products/en_US/detail.jsp?

Although having had a 3Com card with XJack Cat5 connector, I had nothing
but trouble from it and wouldn't touch another XJack thing again.

Having said that, they are clearly going to be different but if the
wireless one works on sliding contacts across a PCB then I wouldn't
touch it.

I have a mini pci slot but it is already filled with the modem and
rj45. I would need to find a card with wireless, 56kvocie modem,and
rj45 nic functionality. I have a thinkpad t21. It's great. If you
load it with as much memory as you can find it takes the sting out of
not having a 1 or 2ghz processcor.
