I used an 8GB x266 CF card without trouble in my 2100. Actually a LOT of trouble. Maintaining the file structure made it extremely slow. Click...wait 3 minutes...but it did work.

Is this possible? I think the partitions are too big for the eMate to
handle, even on 4 partitions, and my eMate becomes uselessly slow and
crashy.
