Hagiwara Backup & 8mb Flash Module

Has anyone had any experience with this module? I am trying to make a birthday wish list (husband's need all the help they can get ) and this combo module appeals to me. I was wondering if anyone has it and can tell me the pros and cons. I like the idea of of not having to carry around a pack of modules.

Thanks for your input!

It works perfectly. It essentially combines the functionality of the Handspring 8MB module and Backup Module all in one. No problems at all.

About the only other thing to consider would be getting a Hagiwara 16MB module or AudibleAdvisor and a backup program like JBBackup. You'd have a little more storage that way, since JBBackup would compress your Visor's memory contents. You'd probably have 10+ megs of storage available thanks to the compression.

The Hagiwara combo module's amazingly easy to use, though, so there's nothing wrong with going that route.

Thanks Denny. I think I have decided on the combo module. I ordered the matchbook adapter recently to store the larger files that I need so I think I am now set, at least until the next gizmo that comes out that I just can't live without....
