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

That looks good. I could then get a PCMCIA Adapter PC Card Reader. The
only question I have is, would my palmtop (a Win CE 2.11 device, NEC
Mobile Pro 770) work with the PCMCIA adapter? Are there any drivers
available? Otherwise I'd need to find a SD to CF adapter.
