I wonder if this adapter will work alright with SOW. I have far more SD than CF cards.

If would add support for SD, miniSD, MMC, MMC plus (MMC 4.0), MMC mobile (RSMMC 4.0), RSMMC, TransFlash (with SD adapter), MS, MS MagicGate, MS Select, MS Duo, MS Duo MagicGate, MS PRO, MS PRO MagicGate, MS PRO Duo, MS PRO Duo MagicGate, and XD.

you could get a 1gb cf card for that price and it looks ugly in the car with the thing sticking out

^ WHS. For the price of that, you could get a 2BG CF card on eBay.

I hear ya, it just won't be the cleanest of solutions IMO. For the few bucks extra, I would just get a CF card......but then again, that is just me. If you are fine with it the way it would look, using your existing SD cards would make sense.

If you want to talk adapters...there used to be a heck of a hack for PocketPC devices with PCMCIA/CF sleeves to use 2.5" external hard drives. Now that you mention it, I might have to do a little research into this one - it may provide an interesting alternative to just the straight Music Box.

Then again, there is that file/folder limit more than anything...you'd hit that one pretty quickly.

Of course will probably use the iPod 60GB a good amount of the time as well.
That one looks much better.

You can always sell the SD cards on ebay to buy the CF cards.

Are you sure you want to have that thing sticking out like a tongue?

Quote: Actually look at one in my last post. SD card actually fits in CF card. Nothing sticks out.
