Compact Flash Card.

They have them everywhere. Here is one.

I have a couple of those for my G. The CF reader is OK. I usually just put my iPod Video in the armrest though (as a lot of my music is AAC, and purchased from iTunes)

 

do i need an adapter to load music from my computer?

 

Yep. I would get a 8-1 reader so it will work for other types of memory cards as well. I got one online for like 8 bucks I think. It was ages ago though.

You can find them but going to CircuitCity.com and search for memory card readers.

 

which one is better?

I don't think it matters much really. I mean some will have faster write times but I didn't really care about that. I bought the cheapest one I could find online that would read Compact Flash (for my G) and SD (for my digital camera). Those ones seems a little expensive. You should be able to get one for around $10 online somewhere.

 

Ok thanx a lot man

 

No problem. If you a search in the tech section I would imagine you would find a lot of threads regarding the CF cards.

 

or you can just buy an ipod

 

Of those, the Sandisk is the only one that reads compact flash cards.

Compact flash cards are a little dated. They were one of the first formats and due to their large size relative to other card types, are becoming used almost exclusively in cameras. They have faster read/write times which makes them good for cameras.

 

I use a SD CF Adapter with mine.

 

Anyone try playing videos to the LCD screen through the CF card yet? Is it possible?
