The 5000D and 5500 can only be flashed with a CF card or via a Windows updater using the cradle.

The 5600 can be flashed with either a CF or SD card or via the Windows updater

(Although I think the Windows updater has been broken for a while now with the latest ROMs)

Thanks... I\'ve got the 5500, the screen\'s broken so I can\'t use the windows updater, and I\'ve only got a SD writer... using a digital camera at the moment to write the rom to CF
