Just wondering, I never use the MS slot on my TR for anything.  My PC card slot is filled up with my CDMA data card.  I would love to utilize the MS slot.  I see lots of CF adapters that hold MS and/or SD, but I have not found any MS ones.

So, anyone know of a MS adapter that would allow us to use a SD card in the MS slot?

There haven’t been any SD>MS adapters because the SD card is too wide and won’t fit in the slot. Therefore any adapters that used the MS slot would have to stick out quite a bit to accomodate the card, making it bigger and more prone to breaking off. It’s a shame since I have a bunch of SD cards I’d love to use for backing up small files.  :(

That’s really too bad, most of my electronics use SD, my camera, pocket pc, etc.

but you can use a PCMCIA card reader instead :idea:
A basic PCMCIA compact flash reader costs less than 10€ and a SD/MS/MMC/XD PCMCIA reader costs around 30€ ...
