Not unless you want to have the PC connected to a reader and let the PC view it as a drive. Then use network sharing to share the driver with the Axim via activesync, WiFi or ethernet.

Maybe using a CF-PCMCIA adapter and then use a PCMCIA card to maybe read the memory stick. I am not sure if drivers would be needed. it would be bulky and cumbersome as well.

Are you wanting to share a memory card from another device like maybe pictures from a camera or video camera?

I just want to store MP3 as I do with my compact flash card . Well it doesn't seem possibly to really use the memory stick I have

On the contrary they make an adapter
that fits in your CF slot, this is designed
for PDA's and such devices that do not
have the entire CF slot enclosed (such
is the case with most cameras)...

Because when the MS is in the
adapter it will stick out a little... because
the MS is taller then the CF slot..

Only 29$ ... i've also seen one around
that accepts SD cards and Memory Sticks

Personally, I'd say if you no longer have a device to use the stick mem, sell it, ebay it etc and get a CF card. I have my CF for exactly that, MP3s. I use my SD card for applications since the SDIO is not used on the Axim (but that is another can of worms).

Just keep in mind, a 128MB CF card
is probably around 30 - 40 bucks too....

So unless you need the MS specifically,
you my as well just get a CF card...

Sweet... Sorry for the mis-information...
I ran out of gas! I had a flat tire! I didn't have enough money for cab fare! My tux didn't come back from the cleaners! An old friend came in from out of town! Someone stole my car! There was an earthquake! A terrible flood! Locusts! IT WASN'T MY FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!

I'd say go with that if you had a device that only used stick mem like a sony camera etc. Else I would still sell it since the CF can stay in without anything sticking out.

Hey. I answered this one back on 3/19/03.
Any adaptors for using Sony Memory Stick?
There is a CF adapter like this one.

And a little cheaper.

Here is a 4 in 1 adapter, and I know it works because I have one...

Nice find. I have a Sony CyberShot P7 digicam, so I already use Memory Sticks. This will be pretty cheap way to use them if my SD gets full, or I just wanna view pics I took with my Sony. I just placed and order I'll let you all know how it works out.

I bought the one from Memory X. The CF itself stick out pretty far and then the MS goes in and sticks out even further.

Like someone else said, it's a good way to view your pics if you have a Sony camera like myself.
