What are you doing with your CFFA
Posted: Fri Apr 08, 2005 5:49 pmRight now mine is sitting in my GS cause it uses less power than my Focus drive and 340 mb is enough for me right now.

It hasn't worked since I received it in Jan '05 I bought a 256MB Sandisk CF card to use it on it but apparently without v1.4 and/or a HW fix the card is useless to me. I could try a 128MB or smaller CF card but haven't been able to find one yet. Besides....after dropping $120 US plus the cost of the CF card I'm thinking I should cut my losses and put the GS out to pasture.

Posted: Thu Jul 14, 2005 5:55 amI agree--to be honest it sounds
like you're looking for a reason
to retire your GS. :) Send your
card in to Rich to do the upgrade
or do it yourself and your CF
will work fine--put Contiki on it!
Or go out and buy a 128 meg CF--
I've seen them on sale for as low
as $20! That GS is a very capable
computer--you just have to show it
you're willing to work with it's
little quirks. :)

Posted: Thu Jul 14, 2005 3:58 pmYeah....I'll probably look around for a 128 meg CF card or smaller. I really don't want to scrap the GS. I have a 1Gig microdrive but it doesn't want to work with the CFFA card either.
Posted: Sat Jul 16, 2005 12:41 amDefinately send me your card. I will update it and send it back.
All you pay is the shipping to me.
With the update, just about ever CF card will work. I am sure there are some
out there than won't, but I haven't found one yet.
And if you are still bummed about buying the card, let me know and I will
let you return it for a refund minus the shipping.
