Let me expand upon the options available to Newton Users who want to use
Paul's ATA Driver with various Media.Already we have ATA PCMCIA Cards, CF
Cards and SM Cards by what you point out. I believe they also speak abou the
CF Hard Drives also by a recent poster...
I have also tried SD Cards with my Newton using the following setup... a but
obtuse but it works...
I have only used on configuration to access an SD card, but I would suggest
that it may also be possible to use a PCMCIA Card with a SD Adapter.
My setup -
PCMCIA Card with CF Adapter
CF Card with a SD Adapter
SD Card 256MB
Remember this is the Newton we're talking about and if you can imagine it
may be quite possible. (IF you try hard enough)
;)
