The IBM MicroDrive is the only one that will work. The E-125 has a CompactFlash Port, which is what a MicroDrive uses. The others are PC Cards

well ya unless you want to do that PCMCIA add-on thing at the brighthand how-to sect. (i thought about it :)) You can't use the others. Now, the microdrive does eat battery, but :/ thats what the battery extender your gonnna build is for :)

Hows about niether? I dont get it, hooking up all these externals to you ppc makes it just a tad bit "less portable". If your gunna hook all these things to your POCKET pc why not get a laptop? Itll do a much more efficent job.

i'd go with a 512mb cf card... but seeing how they aren't released yet, i'll just have to stick with my 384mb one that san disk gave me for a month.... then go back to my microdrive (1gb)
