John,

If all these nifty devices fit into the one CF slot where does the data get stored? Obviously you can't fit a memory card and a peripheral in the same slot at the same time.

Some handheld devices are offering two CF slots or a CF/type II PCMCIA combination. Also, on board RAM can be liberated by first downloading information to it, then copying to the CF card at a later date. Back-up software is already designed for this function on the WinCE platform.

If demand warrants it, I'm sure device makers will be glad to include one more CF slot at a cost of about $2. This would take up little to no extra space in the design of the product. To include a PC Card or a Flop! built in would mean a radical re-design and bulkier product.
