Well, a lot of high-end cell phones have PC Cards that will plug into them
(I'm thinking of the Nokia line; the cellular modem PC Card is ultra-cool,
especially for those of you who live somewhere with real cellular [aka GPM]
unlike those of us here in the US). Of course, many also allow you to plug
an adapter into the base, as Robert mentioned.
