Hi Peggy,

Well, I'll throw in my 2 cents here.  Having support for an SD card is
great.  However, I'd much prefer  to see it as an option, not a requirement.
Since the mPower has a flash slot, and many of us have flash cards that we
used in the classic units, I'm trying to understand why the designers of the
mPower designed a unit that supports flash cards but requires SD cards for
any upgrades?  This came up before with the SMA upgrades, and I know it was
required for those as well, but I'm still struggling with the rationale for
this apparent requirement.
Best Regards,

Les

I don't have a problem with getting an SD card;  it's just that after buying
the mPower transplant, a new computer, and two large-sized compact flash
cards (my preferred type of card), I hadn't planned on making any more
purchases for a while.  But if it's necessary to have an SD card, I guess
that's what I'll need to do.
