SD compatible with CF on PDA?

[PraetorianGuards]

Hi, I'm thinking about buying a wireless card for my Compaq iPaq 3835. The manual says that the expansion slot I have on my pda is secure digital. If I bought a compact flash wireless card, would it work? I was thinking about buying a D-Link CF card. Anyway, thanks for any help in advance!

No, SD and CF are two totally different and incompatible slots.

negative....oftentimes there can be a combo MMC/SD slot, but CF is totally different.

no, they're not even the same size

That's because they're the same card, SD is just MMC ver. 2.0.

You'll have to get an expansion jacket to use the CF wifi card. AFAIK, a SD one doesn't exist

actually sd is a little bigger and thus more durable

I didn't want to confuse him....he wants to know if CF/SD are compatible, probably doesn't know the similarities between SD/MMC.
