Well, that depends. With a USB writer (not writing on the card from the axim) they would be ~around~ the same. But microdrives kill battery, since it has moving parts, and are extremely fragile. so all in all, right now at least, compact flash would be better. until new technology comes out,,,

Not to mention that ATM CF cards are cheaper - up to 2GB.

Also, my 200th post! Dang, I've posted like twenty a day for the past two weeks...
