Question quick CF question

I have a CF card that I use for my digital camera. Could I use that same card to load programs and stuff into in my axim or does that type of memory only store on to SD cards? I'm still trying to learn the difference in the two. Thanks in advance.

Nope, it'll work fine. Both the CF and SD slots can use memory cards. But many people use the SD for memory (since on the Axim the SD is memory only) and CF for I/O such as wifi, bluetooth etc.

You can share memory cards as long as they are FAT16 or FAT32 formatting.


Just throw the CF into the Axim and see if it sees it. You may see a couple of folders that the digicam uses so don't erase those, otherwise you should be fine. I do the same with SD, using the picture viewer that comes with the Axim I can use my SD cards in my camera and then view pics on the Axim.

Thanks so much for your help....A PDA could be so very useful for a field photographer to show clients immediate results of shots on a larger screen than what mosts digicams come equipped with...I know my cam has only a 1.8diaganal screen and the AXIM LCD is much nicer...Thanks again for your help Howard!
