Hi all, Just for grins and giggles, PCMCIA, according to my Cisco router book, stands for Personal Computer Memory International Card Association. Now, try to win a computer trivia contest with that one.<smile>

Nothing like confusion, huh? It also enables you to use an Ethernet card on the side if you have the PCMCIA adapter. Wish I knew what PCMCIA stood for--grin! > ----- Original Message ----- >From: Lindsay Yazzolino <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: Braillenote List <[email protected] >Date: Wed, 11 May 2005 23:42:28 +0000 (GMT) >Subject: re: [Braillenote] Flash card >Hi Rhonda, >Thanks for clearing that up for me. Is the PCMCIA card what enables the flash card to be used in the slot on the side of the Braillenote? Also, out of curiosity for anyone who knows, what does PCMCIA stand for? Thanks. >Lindsay >> ----- Original Message ----- >>From: Rhonda Clark <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >>To: Braillenote List <[email protected] >>Date: Wed, 11 May 2005 18:30:57 -0500 >>Subject: re: [Braillenote] Flash card >>A compact flash card can be the little card that goes in the back, or, you can purchase a little PCMCIA card in which the compact flash can be put. This particular one does not have a wire. A card reader, on the other hand does. The card reader can go in a pc, or your BN. Hope this makes a little bit of sense. >>> ----- Original Message ----- >>>From: Lindsay Yazzolino <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >>>To: [email protected] >>>Date: Wed, 11 May 2005 23:22:07 +0000 (GMT) >>>Subject: [Braillenote] Flash card >>>Hello List, >>>I'm kind of confused as to what the difference is between compact flash, PCMCIA, and all of the other types of storage cards used for the Braillenote? I currently have what I believe to be a compact flash card and a card reader, but some people I know say that they have cables coming out of their card readers (unlike mine). Could somebody please set me straight as to the difference between these cards as well as the purpose of the cables coming out of the card adapters. Thanks. >>>Lindsay >>>___ >>>To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to >>>[EMAIL PROTECTED] >>>To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit >>>http://list.pulsedata.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote >>___ >>To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to >>[EMAIL PROTECTED] >>To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit >>http://list.pulsedata.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote >___ >To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to >[EMAIL PROTECTED] >To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit >http://list.pulsedata.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.pulsedata.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote
