We're selecting items to carry for back-to-school again and want suggestions/advice about what things people would like to see carried.

Right now we're trying to find:

Notebook Soundcard (Other than Audigy or X-Fi's from Creative if possible.)
Speaker Systems (In addition to Creative and Logitech. Bose and Klipsch are possible but unlikely.)
USB Flash Drive Brands
Networking Devices (Suggest your favorite router/adapter.)

Any suggestions on what you'd like to see would be fine too. Keep in mind that we can't really system components yet, but basic supplies are more doable now that the section is getting expanded (SATA cables, etc.)

A sound card for ExpressCard based laptops would be awesome. I can't find one anywhere

What's the technical name of the express card connection? I've heard people call it "express card" and "mini pcie" We might be able to get something through our Creative rep if we ever heard back from them when we contacted them.

Speaking of express cards, would anyone ever be interested in an adapter like this:

There seems to be hardly any express card products availible now, so if your system only has express card slots this might be useful.

The technical name is "expresscard."


And there are very few expresscard anythings out there.

do people really buy that many notebook soundcards? seems like more people would be interested in Klipsch speaker systems than notebook soundcards...

for consumer networking, linksys...and maybe one cheaper brand like netgear/d-link
