Hi,

SUGGESTION:
Make the application aware of the external Storage Card
(as well as the internal) so that users can maximize their
memory options.

It would be nice if I could load my NES.ROMs onto my
MMC card instead of my iPaq's main memory.
There are three reasons why.
1) Using main memory causes my iPaq to synch all of the
game-roms each time I cradle the unit. This takes a
long time.
2) I have a 64Meg MMC plugged into my iPaq doing
nothing. It would be great to be able to use that space
for all of the ROMs.
3) I can save my precious internal RAM for contacts and
email.

NOTES:
The program does not see any ROM-files outside of main
memory.
This is true even if you install the program onto the
Storage Card.

John.

    Uhh, madrobot. Using my 64MB Compact Flash card on my
    Dell Axim has no problems. It may be just your Compaq that
    doesn't let you see it. (Besides, I thought you could switch
    the directory you search files from...)

    I am using an IBM Microdrive with the Ipaq 6530.
    PocketNester has no problems seeing the roms on the
    external microdrive. :)

    Put all roms in a my documents folder on the memory card
    and it might work did for me
