Depends on which jornada you're talking about. With 72x series you
can, but I don't know if there are some kind of cf hubs for 56x.

The 72x cf slot needs a little modification in order to fit a
microdrive. I don't know if one will fit anyhow into a 56x.
Also, a pcmcia wireless lan card is more preferrable, due to they
are cheaper and you have a wider variety of choice.

First of all, it has to be pcmcia, NOT cardbus! In other words the
jornada 72x pc card slot is a pcmcia slot.

Correct, as long as the card is not cardbus.
