Let me point out one thing, though:

My New Year’s Resolution for 2011 (and I never make those) was that I stopped carrying business cards, for exactly the reason you mention; it’s archaic, and can actually have the effect of turning off certain people. HOWEVER: please remember that this is an American convention: people doing business outside the US, especially in Asia, need to have business cards, Still.

Thanks for the heads-up.
