Re: Pismo and USB2

[Luis Sequeira]

I don't see how the USB2 card can work on a Pismo other than at  
USB1 speeds

since your PC slot is not as fast as USB2.

will enable me to have usb2 on the Pismo? Could I then buy an ipod

the iPod through its usb2 cable?
Thanks.






Actually, it SHOULD WORK. The Cardbus card in the Pismo is more than  
fast enough for that. I happen to have used a similar card with my  
Wallstreet and it worked great.
I don't have an iPod, but I can say that file transfer to and from a  
usb2 pen drive were really much faster than usb1 (using the built-in  
usb ports of my TiBook), so yes it is expected to work great on a Pismo.

Mine is faster than USB1 but not near the speed of USB2.

The PCMCIA slot is capable of the typical speed that USB2 transfers  
at. PCMCIA is faster than USB 1.1 anyway.

I got the Belkin USB 2 card for $6 on ebay, was new and in perfect 
shape. Worked fine on the Pismo with 10.3, never tried 10.4 but am 
sure it's okay too. It comes with an external AC adapter, which may

be required for peripherals with higher power requirements. Good luck.

Re: pismo and usb2

[Caleb Cupples]

I have only 1.2 gigs of music on the Lombard, and I'm only adding a 
song or two occasionally, so it's not bad. Then again, the Lombard 
still has its stock 6 GB drive...

Caleb - the difference between syncing with USB1 and USB2 is 
tremendous.

When I completely swap out playlists on my 4 gig Nano it takes about 15

work. (I don't normally sync it with my work computer but I wanted to

stand filling a 30 or 60 Gig iPod with USB1.

With all due respect, Small Dog is hardly the place to look for such  
PowerBook peripherals.  Belkin has one:



If you enter the code "12345" for an online order from the Belkin
