Title: Archos Compact Flash Card Reader
Post by: marshmn on July 05, 2005, 07:02:25 am

Hi all,

Anyone have any idea whether this will work with a Zaurus:
Archos Compact Flash Card Reader (http://www.archos.com/products/prw_500587.html)

I'd like to use it to read MemoryStick cards on my Z...

Anyone know if it works, or if there is another similar solution that works?

Thanks,
Matt

If it is similiar with other CF reader, it should work. I have one SD/MS/SM... 5 in 1 reader, and used it on Zaurus, it works at least for SD, I put a SD into the reader, and it can be mounted as one CF.

PS: The archos's solution seems to be so expensive.  I bought my 5 in 1 with about 20$ or so.

Thanks for the info, the Eagletec one does look good, but unfortunately I can't seem to find anywhere that stocks them in the UK

If someone knows where I can source one in the UK please let us know!

Thanks,
Matt

The cheapest 4-in-1 CF card reader I could find on froogle.co.uk was this one:
