Nonsense! Who decided that CF cards are "dead"? You?
It is still BY FAR the flash memory where you get the most bang for your buck. All flash memory is getting cheaper, but CF is by far the cheapest. I saw a post here about 2 GB CF flash cards for $136!
And there are also HDs in CF format. I currently have a 4GB microdrive in my IPAQ 2215. Can you get that kind of storage with an SD slot?
Who said SD was faster? I never heard that before. It seems to be less reliable. I've had more problems with SD cards, and have read about others having problems with them dying as well. I also have lost them, through their popping out of the slot on top of my IPAQ. Doesn't happen with CF.
I don't mind that my mini camera only has an SD slot. I wouldn't mind a smartphone that had only that. But I would not buy a PPC without a CF card slot.
