If someone's got one or all three form faactor MiniPCI cards and could lay it next to a regular PCI card and something more common ($1 USD, a pen, a CD, etc), it'd be a much more informative picture than the one currently linked to by the article. It's hard to draw a mental picture from the chart that's there right now. MrZaiustalk 16:07, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Confusion

I've removed this:

Currently, the primary use for these connectors is to add Wi-Fi wireless networking capabilities to a laptop; in fact, no devices aside from wireless network adapters are in widespread use as of late 2004. In the past, modem and network capabilities have been attached to laptops using Mini PCI cards.

as it seems confusing. Which connectors? I suppose Mini PCI connector, but then this is saying that it is only used for wireless and it also used for many other things. Clarification or Oblivion! Piet 10:41, 24 January 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Relation to PCMCIA

How does Mini PCI relate to PCMCIA ? Isn't it a competing standard or not? Both use PCI. Is PCMCIA being deprecated? thanks.
