You can not upgrade your usb ports. You can however plug your ipod in your 'old' usb port, it will just go slower.

Hi and welcome to the forum.

You haven't stated your notebook model, but something like this should do the trick.

PCMCIA is the best way to go

Does anyone have any experience with these? I am also interested in buying one but am not sure just how effective and reliable they are.

They are very reliable - just like the ones on the motherboard
