Terry, The back of the mPower, as well as the left side, look completely different than the back and left side panels on the classic. On the back, the mPower has an infra red port, the standard phone jack, two regular USB ports, the standard serial port, the standard Compact Flash slot, a mini USB port, an SD slot, and the standard power jack.

Does that mean we have 3 slots on the m-power? I only know of the back for the cf card and the side for the cf card and its adapter. I forgot the name. Terry Powers -----Original Message----- From: Sarah Cranston [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 07, 2005 5:15 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Patch for the mPower I think a decision had to be made as to which slot would be used, and only one could be chosen. So the SD card slot was picked, mostly because SD cards are the cheapest form of storage available for the mPower. At least, this is what I've gathered. I hope I haven't spewed any misinformation. <Smile> -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Les Kriegler Sent: Monday, November 07, 2005 4:12 PM To: 'Braillenote List' Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Patch for the mPower 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.

But if it's necessary to have an SD card, I guess that's what I'll need to do.
