A Time of Magic

In those far-off days when we only had the one digital device the choices of memory available were much simpler too.

However, these days everyone seems to have a wide selection of digital media devices knocking around. I suspect that I’ve more than the average with everything from PDAs through to camcorders and everything in between. The snag is that such a range of devices means that I end up needing quite a variety of memory types with the original compact flash memory of the PDA having SD cards for that PDA, the laptop, baby computer, compact camera and SLR. Actually, SD was the workable single choice for the lot (though then that comes in normal (up to 1GB), newer normal (up to 2GB) and HC (up to 32GB)) but now I find that I need to add microSD to the range for the new camcorder and miniSD for the mobile broadband modem.

Still, at least the SD family generally come with adaptors which means that I “just” need to remember where I’ve put them…
