If you have already goofed (or decided for other reasons that it's ok to be ripped off) you can be the Linux guinea pig to test out the several available xD-capable card readers and let us all know for the record. :) Volker -- Volker Kuhlmann is possibly list0570 with the domain in header http://volker.dnsalias.net/ Please do not CC list postings to me.
