The
PCMCIA technology association has today announced the 'NEWCARD' format.
This new format makes use of PC Card, PCI Express and USB 2.0 technologies.
The NEWCARD format is also aimed at both Mobile and Desktop PCs. "By
drawing upon USB 2.0 and PCI Express, the NEWCARD specification will bring
serial bus technology to a smaller form factor that offers more performance
and improved ease of use. This new specification will revolutionize how
PC developers and OEMs utilize the expansion slot for next-generation
features such as wireless networking, storage and card readers."
