Re: adapter that lets you plug USB jump drive / thumb drive into Mini SD slot?

Thanks for your replies.

Probably for my purpose (using a thumb drive with both an older Win CE
device and a newer PC) would be to use SD, and get a SD to CF adapter
to use in the PDA/handheld, and get a SD to thumbdrive adapter, to use
the SD as a jump drive in the PC.

I think the SD to CF adapters can be kind of expensive - does anyone
know of a good one at a decent price?
