Michael: Thre are now 8GB card out there. Can one use them if one
records more than one file, of course? That would indeed be
wonderful for my work! I wonder why IRTI is saying that there is a
2GB limit as far as the card capacity is concerned. I believe you
are correct we the 2GB file size limit with SF, at least the older
versions of the software.
