I have a small data recorder that uses USB thumb drives

but won't address drives larger than 512Mb. This isn't

a real problem since the data to be recorded is a suite

of infrequent values recorded over a long period of

time. I'm in the market for a few thumb drives in the

low megabytes range. These are largely obsolete for the

general computer using populace but very useful to my

task. Got anything like this laying around that you'd

like to recycle into a useful cause? Anything from 16

to 512 Mb is fine.

Bob,



If you don't get any answers close to home, I'd be happy to spot you a

couple if you can wait a bit for them to get to you across the pond.

I've got a 512 that I don't use.  Let me know where to send it and you can have it.

  Those would be great? What would you like

  to get for them.

   Thanks to the folks who responded to my plea. We've got

   the mission covered.



   When I bought that system, a 512Mb was a pretty big

   memory stick . . . and the folks who designed it into

   the system probably didn't anticipate that they

   would become obsolete and hard to find so soon!

Bob



A USB card reader would allow you to use CF cards etc as well

   Sure. But small flash cards are equally hard to

   find! Nobody wants less than a couple of gigs any

   more. But one of my handiest digital cameras chokes on

   a 2gig card. The MP3 player in my car chokes on a 4gig

   card.  That technology seems to have exploded much

   faster than the designers of flash based appliances

   anticipated.
