Re: [Gumstix-users] Robostix + Gumstix + RS-MMC?

[Jason v. N. <ja...@vo...>]

Hi Dave,

    I have a Gumstix Basix (just Gumstix, from way back in the day) with 
the integrated MMC connector. I looked at some pics of the netMMC and I 
assume it's basically the same story for my Gumstix? I don't need to be 
able to remove the RS-MMC.
