Hey, Peter, wait a second!
I'm not ready to start working on this right now! I already have the DDK, so no need to email me. Just wondering, because I've never really checked CompactFlash, is the adapter for the
PCMCIA slot? So that you put the card in the adapter, then put the adapter into your Newton? Just wondering...
BTW, I'm still waiting for the guidance, as nobody replied yet ;-)
