Re: [NTLK] 500 16 MB Linear Flash Cards on Ebay

The Newton FAQ and link off of it re memory cards say the Intel Series 2
comes in 2,4,10 and 20mb versions, but this link shows that is just the
"Intel branded" card. This supplier does sell a 16mb series 2 card:

and also, on the tech spec link off it, does refer to the FR2 series.

I guess the big question is why does this list below exempt the 16mb card?
There is no mention of this elsewhere.

Not that it matters at this point. Like many of you, I decided it was cheap
enough to order 2 and find out for myself.
