Of note, I use a standard PC Card CF adapter. I also think it important to use the good card, the Extreme III or IV card. I know if offloads data faster than pretty much any other card out there.
Ron: Thanks for the speed tests. For me, since I don't really use my Newton over the Internet, downloading stuff from the web or writing to another linear card is not something I would be using the Newton for. What interests me is the everyday speed. I did write some packages to the ATA and it did not seem that slow. I think that would be a good test: writing package to the ATA and comparing its speed to the Linear card.
