ACER N50 Compact flash card

[apo13llo]

I have an ACER N50 PDA and would like to get a compact flash card to expand the memory. It has two slots but one is used for the sd card. The other is a type 2 slot, can anyone tell me if I need an adapter to use the type 1 flash card as the type 2 are harder to get hold of and more expensive. The manual and acer website are unhelpful!!

Cheers

(Yes, if you can't be bothered with the history lesson!)

a type 2 card is slightly thicker but otherwith pretty much identical to a type 1 card.

Unless it is very high capacity, there are very few CompactFlash memory cards using the type 2 size. These are mainly used for non-memory cards.... or the old IBM Microdrives.
