Thanks, Mayer. Just curious, isn't just a matter of converter cable (as it is the case for an external HD) ?

You have room for an adapter with an external. Also with the conversion you lose the advantage you're trying to gain. If you chose to fight with it, here's the type of thing you need. I've never see it done successfully in a PowerBook. Please take pictures and write a guide on it.
