Combo cardbus question

I'm looking at getting one of these cardbus combo (UBS/Firewire) cards for my Dell 1Ghz. W2K-SP4 laptop for two reasons.

I need a 6-pin wirewire connection to supply power to a video device. Also, am I correct that if I use an external card for USB I'll be able to access USB 2.0 on this older Dell? Currently I have only USB 1.0 from the sockets on the unit.

I know I had to do this with my older Dell desktops to get USB 2.0 to work. Is it the same principle, here?

Thanks!

Yes, you will get USB 2.0 with that card.
