I'm looking to purchase some flash memory for this device, but I don't know if I can just buy any, or if there are some that are not compatible.

Does anyone know?

Thanks,
Richpit

I wouldn't personally recommend anything over 512 - although you should have no problems at all up to 2 gig CF wise.

Cool! Thanks for both replies! I'm gonna go shopping now. I'm only looking at adding 48 - 64Mb. I don't need anything too huge.

Frankly, I would get a 256MB minimum, since the prices for the sizes below that is ridiculous. 64MB goes less than $10. Just check pricewatch.com Strangely, I see some CF cards going at higher prices in eBay than in newegg.com or ChiefValue.com I would recommend you check out pricewatch.com for best deals.

Thanks for the advice. I have noticed that the CF is very cheap. I'll probably go with a 256Mb.

One more (probably dumb) question...do you know if the PC Card slot on the 2010c is type I or type II? (I don't have it right by me to look...)

I don't believe that there are any Type I PCMCIA slot controllers on any H/PC device. They are all I/II combi.
The CF slots on the other had.. beware of Type II CF.

Usually if you are up really late you can catch a good 256mb sancard on ebay for very cheap. At least I did. Works good.
