Have Too Many Memory Cards?
Ignore the fact that that's a Palm on the right and instead focus on what's on the left. :mrgreen: If you just happen to have an overload of memory cards not being used in your Pocket PC, you have two options. You can give them to me (just kidding), or you can store them somewhere. ePorter Inc. have just released a new range of mini-memory card cases (the mPorter and iPorter) which do the latter. Each case holds up to three memory cards (SD, MMC, SM, MS, MSD and xD) and can also act as a keychain. At $9.95 for two cases, would any of you make this your Pocket PC's best friend?

No CF? and Three cards only? I need something bigger than that.

That is absolutely brilliant! I have one SD in my Ipaq, one in the pocket in the case, and I need to carry Mini SD cards for my MPX 220.
Life is indeed good. I'm gonna grab one of these right away!

I dont' like it. I looked at the photos and it's bigger then the alarm remote for my car. I hate having that remote on my keychain. If you look closer, it's made like photo album, with the cards being held on plastic pages. I wish the made a tiny one for SD cards only, that didn't have pages are was big enough to hold 3 SD cards stacked without any clips. Then it would be small enough for my taste. But it's a brilliant Idea, wish I thought of it.

Such a simple idea, yet so functionally innovative.
Very nice.

Too bad the case looks like a Palm! :wink: Brilliant idea though, I think I may just have to pick one up!

SD Cards
Clever idea! But with a case that stores two SD cards, getting a case for only one more wouldn't help much.
The size doesn't bother me. I buy large key chains so I can find my keys and still I never know where they are. :mrgreen: Just another added worry. I lost my keys - O, my God they contained my SD cards.

if you're very careful with an x-acto knife you can convert the plastic cases that SD cards come in, after a little trimming they will hold 3 comfortably. that's what i did.

I like it, but not for me...yet. With an Axim X50v I use the SD slot to hold programs, so it doesn't come out (besides the Rhino-Skin that I use when I leave the office has 2 holders for SD cards). So it is the CF slot that I swap with, thus my interest in a better way to keep track of those cards.
