Hi Phoebus, >I secured a batch of 50 IDE compact flash adapters for 15.99$ each (+ s/h). >(about 17 Eur)These are not hot swapable (the hot swapable ones will go for >about double the price) but they can accept huge CF cards and even IBM >Microdrives (hehe the Irony of the thing). They work right out of the box >with ANY QL with IDE i/f (Qubide/Qubide II, Q40/60) and if I receive enough >mail I could order them and pass them at no extra cost to anyone that wants >one. I got three myself (well two since one goes for QL development >purposes) and they are great and extremely fast.
Thanks a lot for looking around. But have you actually tested them with Q40/Q60 ??? I tried some (which were about the same price region as yours) and they did *not* work with Q40/Q60, while more expensive ones (had nice LEDs and 3.5" case) worked. Still had no time to figure out, why. Peter
