Basically you have to get a DVI PC card and put a DVI-ADC adapter between that and the Cinema Display (if you buy a new one--the first generation Cinema Display came with a DVI connector).
Several DVI-ADC adapters are announced but AFAIK none is available yet.
That's about the only way there is, I guess.

On Apple's PowerBook page it says:
"8MB of SDRAM video memory supports millions of colors on external VGA monitors up to 21 inches"
I hope that helps.

You can't do it. Quite simply.
There exists a DVI PCMCIA card, but it only has 4 MB of VRAM... not enough to run the Cinema Display's 1600x1024 resolution, so you'd have to run it at a lower resolution which means pixel scaling (read: blurry).
That's the only reason I'm hanging onto one of my ASD 21".... good ol' VGA connector.

Belkin in considering building a VGA-ADC adapter. However, ADC supports both analog and digital signals, so it is unclear whether Belkin's adapter would work only with the 17" Studio Display (the CRT model), only with the 15" and 22" flat panel displays, or with all 3.
One thing that is possible is that the 17" display -- despite being a CRT display -- uses a digital input, like some high-end monitors. In that case, the adapter would work with all 3.

From what I've figured out, the 17" display uses analog input. But since I don't believe such an adapter just for the 17" display makes any business sense, the adapter will most probably work for the digital displays as well--or even only (let's hope they really build one).
