I was given the gift of the FIVA by the Japanese engineering division of Caseo. It was an old prototype.

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. : > It works great, except for two things. 1) It requires acpi to do pm. : > 2) Bogus intline are written to the cardbus bridge, so there are some : > issues getting it to work.
