I have a sony vaio FW480J laptop and there is an unlabeled slot on the left side of the laptop that seems to be an input for a larger memory card but i'm not sure. I wanted to know what it is and what it supports. Thanks.

It's an ExpressCard slot. From the picture I saw it looks to be the slimmer ExpressCard/34 slot. There is also a wider /54. It's basically an expansion slot that can be used for the following: - 1394/FireWire (iLINK) - Docking Stations - Instrumentation - Memory - Memory Card Adapters (CF, MS, SD, xD, etc.) - Mouse - Networking - PCI Expansion - PCI Express Expansion - Remote Controls - SATA - Serial Port - SmartCard Adapters - TV Tuners - USB - Wireless LAN (WiFi) - Wireless WAN/Wireless Broadband Internet (3G, CDMA, EVDO, GRPS, UMTS, etc.)
