I just meant to clarify that to use the SMOS card you need the SMOS credit card sized CPU _and_ (in the case of the Hackman) an intelec pc/104 carrier board, and of course your flash drive, if that's what you are using. > If the card has video onboard, and can be extended to support pcmcia, > couldn't you get away with just the cardpc and storage? sure. > Do you regret the cardpc because of the cost? yes, I think the credit card sized cpu was a bit too expensive, and don't get me wrong, I really like it, but I could have saved a few hundred dollars by getting a regular pc/104 card with the cpu soldered onto the board. Actually, after I've thought about it some more I don't really regret buying the SMOS card and carrier, I just wish they were cheaper. :) -Paul R.
