All/any Compact Flash cards will work, but there are better prices. I just ordered a 512 CF-II card for $88 after rebate.

The Axim supports CF-I, CF-II, SD, and MMC cards.

Well tomorrow they have a sale of that for $100-120. So does that compact card work have you check the link.
Cause it says something like Usb compact card

Yes I looked at the link. A USB enabled CF card is one that can connect directly to your PC through a "Jump Shot" cable (does not require a card reader). This does not affect the card at all as far as the Axim is concerned.

But can that Card connect to Axim 5x or Reader even though it a Usb compact flash card

So will that compact flash card work even though it a USB-Enabled CompactFlash cards are specifically designed for use with the Lexar JumpShot cable?

Yes, it will work. Compact Flash cards are as standardized as AA batteries. Any CF card will work in any camera, PDA, card reader, etc., whether is USB enabled or not.
The Axim has a CF-II slot, meaning it will accept either CF-I or CF-II cards ... ANY CF cards.

I'm not just making this up. I own a Lexar USB enabled CF-I card, and some others that are not USB enabled. They all work the same in the Axim. Fine. Well. OK. Normal. Swell. Adequately. As you would want.
