Jeff Blum, CEO of Glass Lantern, LLC wrote an article on using Compaq iPAQs as storage devices for your digital camera images.

I like to get as much as possible out of the equipment I already have, and my Pocket PC already goes pretty much everywhere since it holds my calendar, address book, notes, calorie tracking software, ebooks, and news from the newspapers and magazines I read. Why not use it for storing pictures as well?

I don't get the point.

Why not just use CF hard drives directly?

U topped out at 1 gig max. If u take lots of video and raw, it might be a tight fit for a long trip. A 5 gig toshiba pcmcia drive or 10+ gig pcmcia harddisk may do wonders for a fraction the size of a laptop.

Hmm...so the 5gig and 10gig drives are type III?

5gb drives are type II PCMCIA. There're no 10GB pcmcia drives at the moment.
