External Cardreaders for a TAblet PC?

BETTER MAKE A SEPARATE TOPIC, because folks may not reread my addendum to my
former entry. Sorry for any redundancy. New: see the weight of the
EZ-Tablet, wh willget a 1 gb TM soon. (The OZO & Flipstart's smallest XPs hv
1gb TMs too: guess can't get Intel?)
When I asked for an external Pcmcia external cardreader in another
topic-listing, the other computer, I should have mentioned having in mind,
is a Tablet PC(having no inbuilt Pcmcia-Cf slots -- too primitive for
Asians): the EZ-Tablet, made by www.ecs.com.tw (ECS, largest motherboard
maker in world -- go to product, then EZ-Tablet). This the smallest-screen T
PC (8.4") that is the cheapest ($999 -- from www.hughbee.com, its American
distributor, comes closest to a T PC handheld, like the WinCE 8.9" Nec
MobilePro (full kyboard).
But it has only a 4in1 card port for newer cards (SD,mmc, etc). No Pcmcia,
CF!!!

1So I would need an external card reader I could velcro to its back and
cable to one of its 2 Usb ports.
Need to know this bfr I buy.
2Can any card reader that says it runs on XP b trusted to run on XP Tablet
OS?

2a Into an external Pcmcia (same as PC card?) cardreadr , maybe a 2 special
sleeve is inserted to read CFers, yes? where
get?]
3 Cost?
4 Deals?
5 What to look for and to look out for?

Re: External Cardreaders for a TAblet PC?

Iomega announced a new USB floppy with a 7-in-1 card reader yesterday.
Probably more than you're looking for, but something others may also be
interested in.

http://thetabletpc.net/news.htm for the press release.

Terri, and what does it supposed to have to do with Tablet PC specifically?
