	At some of the stores in Tokyo area, you can buy the attachment
	cable for 3c589C/D alone.
	(I believe you mean this by "dongle"...  I don't have "dongle" on my
	e-j dictionary)  Therefore, I believe you can order one to 3com.

	However, the attachment cable costs almost $50, and brand-new
	ne2000-compatible PCMCIA card costs $70.  Which do you choose? :-)
