I've seen a few people mention that they were going to try using PCMCIA format Sierra Aircards with their Axims via the flexible, rubberized PCMCIA-to-CF adaptors available. This is my (hopeful) plan as well. I sent a couple PM's to previous posters, but I don't think they monitor Aximsite anymore.

I couldn't find any posts stating whether or not this worked. All the Aircards state a 5 volt requirement and upwards of 850 mA draw for sending data. The CF slot only supports 3.3 volts.

Does anyone have this setup working? Can Aircards run off 3.3 volts?
