 ExpressCard to PCMCIA and CardBus adapter Duel Systems, a business unit of Methode Electronics, Inc., announces a new addition to its DuelAdapter product line with the DuelAdapter Cradle, the ExpressCard to PCMCIA and CardBus adapter. The DuelAdapter Cradle enables users of computers that only have PCMCIA or CardBus slots to use a new ExpressCard device (for memory, audio, video, broadband, etc.) without any need to upgrade their computers. The DuelAdapter Cradle mechanically and electrically bridges the two formats with no compromise in speed and with “plug-and-play” ease of use. The Cradle seamlessly converts information and transfers data at the full PCMCIA and CardBus transfer rates supported by the computer.
