FYI: I have a 1GB microdrive that works fine with my MP770.  The 384mb that
I bought originally didn't work, but the 1GB drive has lower mA requirements
allowing it to work.

Because the IBM Microdrive is incompatibile, I noticed the Kingston 
Datapak PC Card Hard Drive.  ( 
http://www.kingston.com/pccard/datapak2gb.asp ). No big deal, I can use 
a CF card NIC because according to Kingston, it is compatible, and does 
work. I though that anyone else who's cramped on a 192 or 128M flash 
card would like to know this. According to pricewatch.com, the 2 gig 
variety is $238 at the cheapest vendor.

Best regards,
Elliot
