RE: just a question
To go beyond 128MB, they had to change the MemoryStick interface. It looks the same, but works differently, and requires slightly different hardware talking to the memory stick. The NX and NZ's can talk to the new sticks because they already have the new controllers.

I assume by the *GRIN* you understand that for the cost of one of these Sony devices and a 1GB CF card you could've easily bought a laptop with many GB to spare and probably longer battery life to boot.

RE: Oh Goodie!!!
I know I can buy a Laptop for $1200 with a 20gig HD, but thats not the point. The point is there is no case I can buy that straps the laptop comfortably to my leg so I can take it anywhere. Laptops just arent as portable ... sure you can take it with you. BUT ... as for laptop size you would not take it on small errands to the store, or a small errand to the office or when you go to the park to walk around.
Several times I have found the need for my PDA at the park. Seeing an old friend to exchange notes and phone numbers .. or when I need notes for anything. You cant whip out your laptop, go to the application and take notes in under 5 seconds while strolling at the mall now can you?

One caveat is that the Microdrive consumes 10x the power of a CF Memory option, so the battery time is reduced as well. Thats just the nature of the beast. There are soid state memory options which comsume less power and push the 1GB envelope as well.

I was a naysayer
Dropped by $27 and I've already received the registration code. This driver works **perfectly**.
Good job guys!
Battery life?
Camera on NZ-90?
I'm curious - anyone try this driver with the camera yet? Can the photo application use CF cards to save the pics instead of MS?
I wonder if this works with CF adapters for other formats - like CF to MMC, etc. Or if they would require further development.

RE: Camera on NZ-90?
They actually tested an adapter and found it to have worked. Go check out the list on the website. Dunno if it was MMC or not, but I remember seeing one.

Compatible Applications!?
* Work (note that any application that has no data files should work, so don't bother listing those)
* Work in MS Masquerading mode (no access to your MS until next warm boot)
* Work but with problems
* Don't work at all?
(Any application that used VFS code based on Palm's sample source code should have a good chance of working. That's what I used in my freeware and shareware applications <http://www.rjen.com>, and they work great.)
I'll start the lists with what I have on my NX70V (everything else I have either has no data files or doesn't work with the memory stick either):
