To answer the second question first, yes.
I was given the gift of the FIVA by the Japanese engineering division
of Caseo. It was an old prototype. It has a few issues, which is why
they wanted it in my testbed.

No. I'm a gageteer :-). I've been focused on other things, so I've
not been using my mobilepro as much lately. Also, I need to hack the
NetBSD pccard stack to grok 3.3V cards on ISA-like bridges.
