I did/do consider it. It's just that I have never used SD cards before. >From a distance, they appear a bit "high-tech" to me (though I understand they feature a simple SPI interface ?), whereas I am more familiar with old-school Flash chips, so I tried to go this route first. But since this is proving more and more of a dead end sadly, I will have no choice but turn to SD cards. I just hope they are not (too much) more work to read/write than Flash chips already are (page/bloc mess, long writing times, long and funny command sequence to get them working...) :-/ I guess it's time I go hunt the 'net for some SD card datasheet to see what's involved exactly... crossing fingers it's not too difficult/overwhelming, mmmm... -- Vince _______________________________________________ AVR-chat mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/avr-chat
