A small update on PicoPCMCIA. I got an early sample card to test. Hardware is mostly finalized i think, the internal speaker output is being fine-tuned right now. Current efforts are focused mostly on software for games and different PCIC controllers compatibility.
It currently has this high pitched noise, but it won't be there in the final product. Output to external speaker is very clean. Here is a couple of quick videos I made(sorry, i'm not very good at it). Laptop is TP X60s, no DOS compatible sound.

Please let me know if there are any specific games you want me to test.

nice to see it running on newer hw. I plan to try mine on pentium 1 to pentium 3 laptops.

Sure, no problem here. My impression so far is that newer controllers are even more compatible, compared to early ones that have some quirks.

Does it currently support blutooth speakers too?

Yes, the card supports it, but i haven't tried it personally
