They're just expensive :-/ So either the cards are expensive and the readers cheap, or the readers expensive and the cards cheap... seems to all come out the same in the wash. > >It's probably not tha huge a deal... but I have no experience with it. >My 16MB CF card (not big enough by any means) transfers all of its contents >in a couple seconds. > >Thats through what? Serial, USB or reader? None of them... (hmmm an externel 'reader' hooks up via USB, serial, parallel, and SCSI interfaces). As I said, it's via a $15 PC Card that the CF card plugs into. As was pointed out... it seems all the PC Card does is just wire the CF card to the MB bus!
