Do any PDAs support SmartMedia?

I know that CompactFLash is much more popular in this arena. I just haven't heard anything about SmartMedia. I've already got an MP3 play and a digital camera using SM. A solid PDA in that realm would be rather cool.

Any hope?

I don't believe so. however, they have PCMCIA to SM adapters: if you got a Compaq iPAQ or URThere @migo PPC, you could use a PCMCIA to SM adapter to read your SM cards.

I just bought my dad a "MemPlug" Springboard module for his Handspring Visor. It's an expansion module that allows you to insert different sized SmartMedia cards to expand the Visor's memory. I bought it online from PalmGearHQ for $49.99 (had to since I live in Canada), but I found it on the weekend at a CompUSA in Michigan for only $29.99. :( There's also an MP3 player for the Visor that uses SmartMedia for storage.

There are some third party adapters that allow Palm Pilots to use SmartMedia for external storage.

I think the Casio em-500 (m-500 maybe?? I don't quite remember the exact model) supports SmartMedia.

I think the the Casio E-125 does, check there website first though. My Em-500 supports only MMC and Secure Digital memory cards.
