- bar a few witty features still not there... and just slightly more expensive than the new MXs in 1999...
... sigh...

Thanks all the same, but it was someone else's q I tried to answer by suggesting the Gold Dacom ISDN Card and Adapter. I still have one which just tested a few times but never really used. I must look for it but I'll be
back to Germany in mid April.

Hi Donald,
some years ago I wrote a macro (macro5) for myself, doing what you want.
Please tell me the structure of your files (label, typ and length) in the same order as shown, when you edit a record. I will change my macro for your files and send you by PM.
Do work you with Macro5 or Assistant or ExtraBars?

Subject: Limitations of CompactFlash Cards

Hi all,

This has probably been covered many, many times
before, so I apologise in advance.

In my keenness (or stupidity) I decided I would
upgrade all the Flash Memory cards on my various
PDA's and this of course included the 5mx and netBook !

I quickly found the limitation on my old Sony
Clié T625 was 128MB (Sony Memory Stick).

Anyway, I ordered a SanDisk 512MB for my 5mx and
two SanDisk 1GB for my netBook (one is for for a PCMCIA adaptor).
The 5mx (16MB) I have, by the way, is one of, if
not THE very last brand new ones sold (from Clove).

Never thought anything more of it until today,
when I tried to install a game onto the 5mx.
It didn't even see the 512MB card ... so I went
down to 256MB and 128MB (both SanDisk's too),
but it kept saying "Card Not Present" (wouldn't format or name).
I tried Viking and PQI cards too of those capacities but still nothing.
In the end I put in a 64MB PQI card, and bingo, it was OK !

Anyway, my question is : "Is the limitation of
CompactFlash cards on the 5mx 64MB ?"
Or am I missing something ?

I haven't got round to the netBook as yet, but am
I going to run into trouble with the SanDisk CompactFlash 1GB cards there ?

Oh dear, this is what happens when I get carried
away by my keenness and money and I go on a spending spree !

Thanks in advance,

Steve Denney
