[Duo2400] PC-card question

[francis.fitzpatrick at att.net]

Hi Eric:

I've tried a PC Card adapter for Memory Sticks.  It works but as RDX points 
out, it is slow.  CardBus is not enabled.  The card I have is the Dazzle 
adapter and it allows you to insert Memory Sticks, Secure Digital, Smart Media 
and another format.  (Sorry, I don't recognize the logo for the 4th format.)  I 
think they also make adapters for Compact Flash.  One downside of this adapter 
is that you have to remove the card to change Memory Sticks (and, maybe, other 
media).

Let us know how this goes.
