Which would you buy for a PDA? I\'m just looking to throw some MP3s on my IPaq and figured I\'d buy something I could eventually use in a digital camera if I ever get to buy one.

Just curious about the power consumption on the little micro drive and reliability.

I found them both 20 bucks cheaper at bananapc. LIttle help and I\'ll drop the hammer.

Well that\'s not where I was buying it from. They just had good descriptions. But thanks for helping me out in my decision betwen the two.

I was doing the same comparison, the magicstor card is crap from what I\'ve heard on the Ipaq boards. One guy had to return his 4 times until he got one that worked. But if you do get one that works there\'s not much of a problem. However, I\'d go with the other card.

Since I have my Axim x50 on order now, what I did was get a SDIO card, and I bought a Viking 1gb cf card (65 bucks) to use with my ipaq until I get the new Axim.

I bought a 2 gig 80x CF Card. Hopefully that will be enough to get me through some trips with some music. I put comedy shows and stuff which are highly compressed on there and that gets me through the flight nicely.

I\'ve been downsampling some of the Adult Swim programs and some stand up acts on my current Ipaq. Helps on my drive to work....not to great for the other motorists though
