Re: [NTLK] eMate memory cards

Frank,

Thanks for the FAQ :)

Now, the Apple 1MB cards took a backup battery, are they not SRAM
based on the backup battery in them?

Guess I'll know for sure very soon; if they don't work I have a friend
back in Memphis who likely has a pile of SRAM cards and I know he'd be
up for trading.

Take care,

Chris
