Julie you are a Microsoft MVP, and yes I did read what you wrote, how about you? Did you even read what I wrote? As a Microsoft MVP we are not here to add to the general confusion. What you wrote can create the illusion that the two hundred series actually has a SDHC slot, it doesn't. And as I stated above no "high capacity" as HP chooses to use it does not mean SDHC! You will not find a SDHC logo on the iPAQ 200 series and there is a reason for that. Kingston has this on their site;

Although identical in size to todays standard SD card, the new SDHC cards are designed differently and are only recognized by SDHC host devices. To ensure compatibility, look for the SDHC logo on cards and host devices (cameras, camcorders, etc.).

For added reliability and durability, our solid-state SDHC memory cards are built of nonvolatile memory components and have no moving parts that could wear out or break. All cards are 100-percent tested and are backed by a lifetime warranty† and 24/7 live technical support.

Features/benefits
  • Capacity* — 4GB, 8GB, 16GB**, 32GB**
  • Dimensions — 0.94" x 1.26" x 0.08" (24mm X 32mm X 2.1mm)
  • Weight — 0.09 ozs (2.5 g)
  • High-Speed Class RatingClass 2: 2 MB/sec minimum data transfer rate
    Class 4: 4 MB/sec minimum data transfer rate
    Class 6: 6 MB/sec minimum data transfer rate
The iPAQ two hundred series can't meet that minimum data transfer rate. That is why there is no SDHC logo on the iPAQ. An SDHC slot has to be capable of transferring data at a rate above 6 MB/sec.

Just one of the reasons video is so poor on the two hundred series.
