Rating: Summary: A No-Brainer Review: Any time I get a device, I immediately go for more memory because I'm just a hog. I intend to put all my digital photos on it. (OK, I don't realy have that many, but still.)I turned the Palm off, put the chip in, and it just kinda does what it is supposed to do. It could not be easier. My only worry is that I might lose it, because its smaller than a Kennedy half dollar.
Rating: Summary: So much more memory Review: I have a m505 that's at the bursting point of it's 8 megs of memory, so I figured getting another 32 megs onto the device would solve all my problems. But I still have a few warnings: 1) This card is designed to hold data, not programs. You can put some programs on it, but it's not very pretty. The programs all go into a single group in the launcher for "Expansion Card" and many will not work when installed there. There's a free program called MSMount which allows you to "mount" a directory on the expansion card as if it were local. It works well for most programs, but there are still some programs that don't work. It also greatly slows down many operations on the device. 2) Programs must support putting data on the card. You cannot move data from your addressbook, memo pad, etc. over to your card. Many of my huge memory hog programs (ThinkDB2, AvantGo) won't let me stick their data files onto the memory card and so I can't offload. Plus, many of my programs (TealDoc, DocsToGo, FireViewer) had to be upgraded for me to get support for storing their items on the memory card. Now, if you're looking to hold lots of data for use, the card delivers just what you'd want. I've moved all of my pictures (which I create/view with FireViewer) over to the device. I now have tons of photos of my friends and family easily accessible. I've got bunches of eBooks on the card. I used to need to break up a standard novel into a bunch of 200k chunks, but now I can throw the whole thing (usually ~1mb) on the card without worrying about running out of room. DocToGo lets me sync all my work documents onto the device for convenient access and updating.

Rating: Summary: Great memory Review: I pack my memory card with lots of ebooks, and it holds quite alot. I never worry about being without reading material with this great little memory card. I also save my own works to it as well, since I do a majority of my writing on my PDA.
