USB Host via CF
« on: June 23, 2004, 07:01:12 pm »
Does anyone know if a Belkin F5U222 PC Card (Cardbus actually) might work with the CF-PC card adapter as a USB host for a C7X0?   I believe the card is supported under linux on PCs, but don't know if it could work in the zaurus.  I would like to get this to work with my Sanyo 4900 phone.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks

My understanding is that only PCMCIA cards will work, not cardbus ones.

Afraid not, CF is only 16bit - cardbus is 32bit.
Gorgeous C860, 256 Sandisk SD, 1Gig Pretec 40x CF, PDAIR leather case & the really cool retractable iPDA USB sync/charge cable. Powered by PDAXROM BETA 1.

My wish - to have a Command & Conquer style game on my Z! (FREECNC!!!) Simcity 2000 would also be great.
