Me too. $19.99 @ Best Buy. Good thing they still sell those old style PCMCIA cards still. I thought maybe MB would outfit the car with ExpressCard slots.

So would the express card adapter work in the car? Or does it need to be the same one that was posted in this thread. I'm finding it easier to find the express card adapter in stores.

and the head unit can read it no problem. Hols about 1000 songs in mp3 format and about 1200-1400 in wma format. It's also very fast.
I got my card reader today I'll try it later.

Is it true the MM will only recognize 255 folders? So if you have more than 255 different artist folders like in itunes and you upload it to the card, it will not recognize this?

Where can if find this 6 in 1 Sandisk reader in Ontario? Checked Bestbuy, Future Shop, Vistek, etc... no where to be found. I picked up the Sandisk express card which is too small and I have to return it.

Any suggestions for the GTA area would be greatly appreciated.
I need a reader that is compatible with SDHC 4GB card.

Thanks Tashkent, I'll give Henry's (Oakville store) a call tmrw and verify they have it in stock and that they carry the upgraded one.

As for Staples, the link is for the 4Gig card with the USB 2.0 reader, already have 4Gig SDHC card that comes with a USB 2.0 reader. Thanks!

I currently use a Compact Flash card with PCMCIA card adapter and it works like a charm. No need to worry about SDHC compatibility issues.

Bought an 8 GB (280 speed; for fast read/write) and songs are accessible instantly when i scroll through folders.

Thanks, I've already picked up a 4gig SDHC card, so I'm kinda stuck looking for the right adapter that will be compatible with this card.

You can buy the 6 in 1 adapter at Best Buy that was mentioned in this thread. It will say SDHC on it.

Picked up the Sandisk 6-1 adapter this afternoon, plugged in my SDHC card and inserted in the PCMCIA slot in the car. Works like a charm! I prefer using the card better than my ipod. The SDHC card can be pulled out without ejecting the Sandisk adapter.

Thanks everyone on this thread for you advice.
