question about PDA and USB flash memory

[aznglow]

i have question about pda

First of all what is the best one out there now.. (i think ipaq.?? but.. is it really ? and is it worth the money?)
and since i think the momory capacity of all PDAs are so low..
I was thinking if i can use USB flash with pda..
is it possible? does it work exactly same way as using it with PC?


thanx for the help..

Most Pocket PCs including the iPAQs don't have a host USB port built-in that will let you plug in a USB flash key.

Just buy a flash memory card like CompactFlash or Secure Digital.

There are a couple of Pocket PC's that have host USB support, and someone just released a CF adapter which adds a USB host in case you don't have one. I don't have the link, but it was on pocketpcthoughts.com a few days ago. However, for the cost and convenience, fr is right, just go with CF or SD. You can always get an adapter to use it with your PC.
