Just ordered the long adapter.

http://www.newegg.com has 32MB CF cards for $19. For under $35 I can add 32MB of space to my Visor. What a steal!

Wow. That's a bummer. Seems like a great product. I'm REALLY tempted!

Anyone know where to get a good deal on a 64mb CF card?

I just jumped on it and bought 2 for the office. There are two VPL users here, but one is looking to defect to a PalmVII. the good news is someone else wants to buy his VPL!

So.. it *seems* like a good idea to buy the flush adapter from these matchbook folks, so I can have an actual place to insert the CF cards. But what do you all think about spending $30 for a 32Mb card when you can get a 32Mb CF card from www.newegg.com according to Clanggedin's previous post?

Or should I be nice and give a little extra $$ to the matchbook folks and buy their 32Mb card?

Thoughts?

Yes, especially since they have no data regarding whether or not the newegg cf cards are compatible!

Read the recent posts that mention Mr. Flash cards - general conclusion is, they work but have higher power consumption.
