I'm using a SanDisk Ultra PC Card Adapter and a 1GB Ultra II Compact Flash card
on the G-70.
Works like a charm, and most likely will on E-60 too.
But to be real sure, read your manual as well.

Cheers

I use a Pretec Compact Flash adaptor with a 1 gig Adata CF card. It also works with a 94mb Pretec CF card.

I am using a Sandisk adaptor with a 1GB CF card. Instant recall.

Sorry I didn't send that piece along, Harold. I'm sure you'll find they're not that expensive. Finding a decent small memory CF for anything less than an arm and a leg is another thing. I've been searching to replace my (your) 2gb card for a 512mb or a 1 gb - no luck locally. I found one online for $14. The 4 and 8gb at the stores for $40 is not my cup of tea.

If it's not too late, take the card with you when you go, just to be sure. Do not buy a multi-card reader!

I ordered a 1gb CF memory card from here: http://flashmemorystore.com/compactflash.html . It cost me less than $16 shipped. They seem to have all sizes and price ranges. To my understanding, we don't really need a super fast card, those are mostly for hi-res pictures and stuff like that.

BTW, I have a SanDisk card reader and I think I paid about $15 for it a few years ago.

Reading this tread, I thought I should take a look and see what to
find around this country.
It's sure hard to find 1GB cards, and also 2GB (Don't know if 2GB
or larger size will work with G-70, manual say 1GB).
Looks like GB size grows fast on those cards as well, so I ordered
some stuff just in case it will disapear from the stores, because it
was sure not many in stock anywhere, some webshops had only 4GB and
up.

2 APACER Compact Flash Card 1.0 GB
1 APACER Compact Flash Card 2.0 GB
1 CC CF Adapter PCMCIA TYPE I/II

Total NOK 406.50 = US$ 58,95 (todays currency) shipped.

Not really a ripoff, it's in fact cheaper than I had to pay for the
SanDisk adapter and CF card I already have.
Strange, cause usually nothing are low priced in this country, when
things are at offer or low-price sale, it's most likely the doubble
of ordinary prices!!

Happy Playing
GJ
