True, it's hard to beat them for compactness and ease of use. I have a 20 GB Imagetank which works quite well, although I'm a bit disappointed with the length of time it will work on a battery charge. However, it did come with a car charger as well as an A/C power adaptor. It's pretty small and tough too. What I like best about it is how easy it is to use. One button dumps a CF card. Plus, you can dump twice and have two copies in separate folders. It also works as a CF card reader when USB connected to a computer. For the serious traveller though, a laptop back in the hotel with an 80 GB hard drive is the ticket. -- Jim Davis, Owner, Eastern Beaver Company: http://easternbeaver.com/ Motorcycle Relay Kits, Powerlet, Centech, Posi-Lock, Parts, Info, Photos K100RSes on both sides of the planet! * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
