Does everyone else get super slow transfer speeds when syncing music to their axim without a media card reader? I have to use a media card reader because it takes almost an hour to put a cd on my axim. Is this because i have a USB 1.1 card? Would USB 2.0 fix this? Just need some help because I would like to transfer files without using my media card reader sometimes.

I had this problem with my 50V. Turns out, the cradle is USB 1.1 so its slower than using a card reader/writer. Second was that I was synching on battery with the processor set to autospeed (or whatever that option is called) so it wasn't operating a full speed. Lastly (if I recall), I had synch set to file conversion, which when combined with the slower processor speed really slowed it down.

When I can't go direct with card reader/writer, I now do all synching with the power cord plugged into the cradle to keep processing speed up, and turned conversion off. Nothing I can do about the cradle being USB 1.1 tho.

If you don't want to do it with a card reader you can use wifi. That'll be faster than the cradle.

Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it.

   

It's not the USB type, it's the cradle/cable changing that USB type to serial that slows transfers down. That's a serial port on the bottom of your Axims not a USB port.
