It seems utterly bizarre that I can't seem to find one. There are tons of PC Card (16-bit/ISA) adapters, but I can't find any CardBus (32-bit/PCI) adapters. Without support for CardBus, these adapters are going to be dog slow.

I'm using the presence of the metal grounding strip on the end of the card to identify whether it's CardBus or PC Card. I don't see this metal strip in any of the ones that I've been able to find for sale.

Yes, I have one which is Lexar branded. It is faster but not super fast (6MB/s). And unlike the plain 16-bit PCMCIA ones, it needs drivers installed rather than using a generic driver.

There are, but they are rare. And the UDMA one is virtually impossible to obtain.
