Not sure how you get simpler than Magma? Or do you mean cheaper

Does the bandwidth problem still exist if using the PCIExpress interface?
Also, it would be really interesting to hear how the ExpressCard solution works with Creamware cards... who's going to be the pioneer?
p.s. couldn't get to the link you posted...what did it refer to?

I have always being thinking that the bandwith lost was for the pcmcia port, not itself for the Magma. But I don´t know about the new pci-e.
