Hi Peggy and All, While we're on the subject of labels, I just received my first Secure Digital Card. Unlike the flash cards, there is no ridge on the card as there is on a flash card. I know the teeth go down into the card Reader, so I only have a choice of two options to insert the card. The top of the card looks exactly the same on either side of the card. Has anyone discovered a good way to know which way the SD card goes into the card reader, or for that matter, the BrailleNote mPower? I expect that I will try this on the mPower tomorrow, as it should be at my office by then. BTW, the card reader did accommodate my card, and it was formatted as Fat and works fine. Best Regards,
