Is this the RealPort dongleless one? I believe I saw one in PC World in
Blanchardstown yesterday, for a price of the order of IEP250.00 (don't quote
me; I wasn't shopping, just replacing a broken card, so I didn't note prices).

Xircom Realport 10/100 no modem also works fine with the latest version of
PCMCIA tools. Don't know about out-of-the-box RH6.2.
