Rating: Summary: Great card but not compatible with CLIK! IOMEGA Drive Review: 32 meg card is almost equivilent to 36 exposure film roll in Olympus C-2000 SHQ mode. Internally, the card is formatted differently than less capacity SmartMedia cards. It cannot be read by my IOMEGA CLIK! drive and although difficult to find in the IOMEGA documentation, they admit it is incompatible and are NOT planning to fix the problem. I use the DELKIN PCMCIA SmartMedia card reader which AMAZON sells for $40 and it works great.
Rating: Summary: Card IS compatible with FlashPath - Get driver Review: After some frustration, I found out you can download a driver for the 32Mb cards from Toshiba America. It downloads as a ZIP file. Download it and unZip it it the FlashPath directory. Then re-run the setup.exe file from that directory, (not your FlashPath disk) Sorry for the first message.

Rating: Summary: This is what to get with a SmartMedia device Review: Although "New Media Technology" SmartMedia cards cost less than name brand cards, they are functionally identical.I have found that the most effective way to use a SmartMedia card, like this one, is with an external USB card reader. (I use a Feiya USB unit... it works seamlessly and costs less than the "New Media Technology" version because it doesn't read CompactFlash.) These readers are the absolute fastest method of transferring photos/files/MP3s or whatever. But please note that 64MB SmartMedia cards will be widely available soon. Because the 64MB cards' cost-per-megabyte is currently lower than the 32's, the price of these 32MB cards might be forced down.

Rating: Summary: Great card but not compatible with CLIK! IOMEGA Drive Review: I use an Olympus C-2000 Z Digital camera. (Buy one from Amazon. They are great.) I use 8 mb Smart Cards and read them into my computer with Toshiba's Flash Path. (Uses your standard 3 1/2 in floppy drive. No cables to a serial port! No unhooking mouses etc.) This New Media Smart Card works fine in the camera, but is not compatible with Flash Path. For me, that makes it useless. New Media sells its own card reader that you have to hook up to your computer port. Flash Path's method is MUCH better. Maybe there is some way to make it compatible. My e-mail address should accompany this review. Bob Wisne
