Well I did buy it a long time ago, when I wanted to use a CF card in my
hplx200 pocket pc. I bought a 15MB CF card for under $60 and $12 for the
adaptor. Boy was I on the bleeding edge - the old 1MB SRAM PCMCIA card with
lithium coin cell was obsolete now!
If there's such a thing as a 16-bit adaptor then it's bound to be one. It
does seem a lot slower than the USB2 CF reader but I haven't any
measurements to confirm.
thanks
Jez
