"googled" a little bit - I found: - www.farnell.de Best.Nr.3078127 - http://www.digikey.com/scripts/us/dksus.dll?Criteria?Ref=93365&Cat=30475099 - http://www.avxcorp.com/docs/Catalogs/cfmfb.pdf - http://www.emulation.com/compactflash/ - http://www.cse.com.tw/pro04.htm so far unfortunately, cannot tell you anything regarding availibility (especially in germany) I don`t know, if Farnell sells for private customers. i`m not shure - but maybe a CF card could "fit on that": http://www.knap.at/de/pdf/kat_s/355.pdf ???????? If this fits, it could be cheapest solution, IMHO. I ask my previous question again: Can we read/write fat12/16 with fat32 driver code in Rockbox ? regards Roland PS: Hey - don`t let things let look like it was YOUR idea ;) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matthias Wächter" <matthias_at_waechter.wiz.at> To: <rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se> Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2003 2:38 PM Subject: next HW-mod: CF adapter for AJB > Does anyone have a clue where to buy a CF slot?
