    WRONG. MacBooks do NOT...

    MacBooks do NOT have an ExpressCard slot in them.

    right

    Macbook Pros do have card slots. Therefore, this is a card for Macbooks.

    Any clue

    if these work with Powerbooks? I know mine has a PCI express slot, but not sure what size it is... This would be much faster than my crappy USB CF card reader - a boon for large photography jobs.

    The title is misleading

    The title should read "2.5Gbps card reader for MacBook Pros launches".
