Is doubling the flash memory density in same-size die.
"Primary applications for SMART's Linear Cards have been PDAs, notebook
PCs, networking, and portable medical equipment. SMART's ATA Flash
storage PC Card is particularly ideal for small, rugged, low-power
application-specific computers used with medical equipment, inventory
control, telecommunications, industrial controls, avionics, test &
measurement instrumentation, still cameras, notebook computers, PDAs,
and tape recorders"-BUSINESS WIRE--Sept. 17, 1997

I'm using 2 GB Amtron smart ATA card and a 4GB Amtron smart ATA.Both Newtons are running fine,a little bit slower but not to much..I installed Heap Magic and with 320 heap it's fine.4 partitions for applications,Books,Games and Music.Better not to activate automount when you start the Newtons.Beacuse are smart cards are acting like linear flash,I mean are acting quicker

What is "Smart ATA".  To paraphrase Socrates,

"What makes it so smart?"
