Re: Device to increase storage capacity in the Karma

Hi Don,
   I quite agree with you.  It's a bit too steep for me to justify.  
How many PCGs are out in Karma Land to make up 199 floppies.  Even 
with my own collection, I'd be lucky to hit a dozen banks, if that.  
Of what is worthwhile, I have my own 9 collections plus one 
development bank, Chemistry, and then Reincarnation - that's it.  The 
rest is just "fluff" in my opinion.  There really isn't a lot out 
there for Karma.  So, it doesn't make sense for me. 

If I am not mistaken, I think the developers are in Russia, but they 
market through Germany.

It's too bad that a flash/SD/USB adapter insert directly into the 
floppy drive can't work. That would be the best/cheapest solution.

But, for those willing to fork over $300, the UniFlash is great.

Cheers,
Eric
