Goodness, David,

There are dozens of these available.  Just Google for:

+USB +wireless

Here's one for starters from Netgear, but watch the URL
doesn't wrap. It ends in LHX80

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Netgear-WG111-Wireless-54Mbps-Adapte
r/dp/B0002LHX8O

You can also get them in PC World and Staples.

George.

How about getting a USB Wi-fi adapter?  Not as reliable as
the PCMCIA cards,

but may be adequate if you are only one USB port short.
