I am mainly interested in getting the connection-kit stuff (cable and
software) and a memory card. Regarding the connection-kit stuff, I thought
I read that one could somehow transfer stuff to the Zoomer with GEOWORKS.
Since I already have and use GEOWORKS (ENSEMBLE), I was interested in this
thought. The question is, do I still need the link-up software, or is there
some feature in GEOWORKS that makes this all possible?
Regarding the memory card... I have heard of flash RAM cards and SRAM
cards, and I have heard that some people have used Newton cards with the
Zoomer. What do I really need here? SRAM or FLASH (what is the
practical difference, by the way?)
And someone mentioned getting a Newton card for $59... is this a repeatable
deal, or just someone's luck? What is the source?
Also (this is getting long, huh?), do most PCMCIA memory cards work, or
just certain brands? The manual for my GridPAD 2390 says that I should
call the tech support folks for information on "certified" cards, but
they don't seem to know much about it, much less about where I might lay
my little hands on the things!
Whew!
Thanks in advance for any replies.
