Re: A question about moving to a higher sd card

I picked up a cheap card reader for $20.00. I have a couple of 1.0 GB SDs 
that I keep different collections of music files on. I usually listen to the 
music files on my palm TT, but sometimes I like to listen to them on my work 
PCs which do not have SD ports. My home PC does. I just put the SD card in 
the reader and then plug the reader into a USB port on my work PC and the 
computer recognizes the USB reader and card as a driver. Then I can copy 
files to and from the card just like I was doing so with any other drive on 
the computer.

I also think that if you can manage to move files with HotSync, that data 
flows much slower than with a card reader.
