Hi carol, I thought about it last night, and I think I'll store my work
to my trusty USB pen drive. It'll be easier than either the external
drive or the cards. However, as always, thanks for the great advice. No
doubt I'll be asking more soon, so watch this space! Thanks again.

Take care, Chris, in that some have found this drive a little slow,
though I personally am happy enough with the speed. Also, although
we're not sure of the reason, you can't record directly on to this
drive so it's only really good for storage. It's a great little
drive. The small USB plug may be a little difficult for you to manage
and, without seeing your dexterity problems first-hand, I can't say a
"Yes" or "No" to that one, but you'll probably need to use two hands
to do it.

Thanks for the advice. I think that would be easier than those fiddly
cards. Thanks again.

Dear Chris,
If you are using a Bn M-Power, the exteranal hard-drive would
be easier. (Quite a few on this List have them.) In fact,
although the Western Digital Passport 80-GB USB external
hard-drive has a place to plug in an adapter, you don't really need
it. If you want one though, they are not very expensive, about
$10, US currecy. Equally important, it isn't large or heavy.
I used a free telephone number to order mine. (SInce you arein the
UK, I don't kow if this will work!) The number is:
877 934-6972; or 800 832-4778.
You can check cost on www.pricewatch.com.
I don't have the Web address for Western Digital here at my desk.
However, I'm sure others will provide it.
