Are SD and MMC cards the same thing?

[kmac1914]

See topic title.
I've been seeing the two mentioned interchangably, so I'm not sure. Are they usable in the same slot?

MMC card predated SD and are bit thinner but the same form-factor. Your SD device should have no problem recognizing MMC cards.

From what I know of they are the same except SD can be password protected and MMC cannot (I may be wrong here) and therefore most programs for Palm/PocketPC are on MMC as opposed to SD.
