PCMCIA Firewire cards

Hi all.

Please tell me all I need to know about Firewire ports through a PCMCIA card.

My laptop doesn't have a native firewire port, so I need to get a PCMCIA card to plug in my (future) DMK firewire camera.

Anything I need to know?

The 6-pin ports power the device as well, whereas 4-pin ports need separate power for the camera.

Most of those listed on ebay are 6-pin, so power should be ok?

The ones listed on ebay are 400Mbps, I can't find any at the new 800Mbps?

Something like this should do the job?

ebay #1

ebay #2 (with USB2 as well)

Thanks for any help.
