Yep - mine says it is a 3C563D.

Looking at,
	http://www.3com.com/3sn/catalog/pccards-lanmod.html

The only difference seems to be that the 562 is "+ 33.6 Modem",
and 563 is "+ 33.6 Global Modem", so presumably the 563
is the international model.

Hopefully that means the 563 will work too.

How recent is the devi82365.c PCMCIA driver you used, and where
do I get it?

Thanks,
DigbyT
