Hi. I know what you mean, I bought a sandisk 512mb cf card from radio shack, and found it didn't work int he ptr1 or my compact flash reader on my computer. I was fortunate enough that I was able to return it however. that is why I asked the question, and I haven't had a chance to go back and read all the messages int he archive as of yet. many thanks for the reply however. phil
