I haven't seen what you look for (although I haven't looked for one
either). I have seen a desktop PCMCIA adapter that would plug into
your PC and use and exposed 3.5 inch drive bay to expose the card
slot. I don't know if it would work for your card, but it worked
well for the Compact Flash adapter I got it with when I got my first
digital camera.

FYI - I just got off the phone with Dell and they are shipping me one.
Thanks!
