Sandisk 16gb Cf Card Announced
« on: September 27, 2006, 03:59:44 pm »
These are high priced cards ($1,049.99), but my question is, Will a Sandisk Extreme III 16GB CF card work in a Zaurus, with all the new technology that Sandisk has put into them?

Sandisk 16gb Cf Card Announced

I don't see why a 16GB card shouldn't work; after all, people have plugged in ipods and stuff.

It might not work until reformatted.

I see that 8GB cards are well under GBP80 or USD150, so I can see that 16GB cards will be a reasonable price soon. Just beware of fakes on ebay!

Came across this comparison table with specific reference to Extreme III card.

There doesn't seems to be a great speed boost unless using the card in an hi-end professional camera.

Does anyone know the limit of the CF I/O on Z?
