Yes it indeed works that way.  It's how I did it.  Just make sure your 
batteries are fresh or run the camera from the AC adaptor as it says in the 
directions.  The .bin file needs to be in the root directory of the CF card, 
NOT in the DCIM subdirectory.

Need some advice, *istDerhood, please

My Windows 98 SE machine can't read from the *ist D directly, but reads 
from and writes to the Lexar CF card just fine when the card is removed 
from the camera and connected to the USB port.

From a quick glance at the instructions, it seems that I can copy the new 
firmware directly to the CF card (that is, with the card removed from the 
camera), insert the card in the camera, turn the camera on as instructed, 
and the *ist D will update.

Can some computer guru confirm for me that this will work okay?

Thanks much,

Joe
