Hello,
We ordered it through

17photo.com

First we did a search for Dane Electronics and we used amazon to initate the order by comparison shopping. Then we were taken to the 17photo.com address.

Hello,
My BP was shipped with a 512 MB Dane CF Card, so I ordered a 4 GB Dane Electronics Type I CF Card. This is based on the primice that if this is what the manufacturer uses, then it should work just fine, I hope. I got the card for $69.95. We ordered some other SD/ MMC cards for some other devices at the same time, but that didn't have anything to do with the price.

Last week I shared my difficulties with a Crucial 4GB flash card. I received the helpful suggestion that this brand falls into the category of off-brand and generic cards, which generally do not work with the BP. I then contacted the place from where I bought the card and returned it by mail on Wednesday.

It was suggested that I buy a Sandisk or Kingston card. I want to be sure that I purchase a functional card. I found the following Sandisk 4GB CF card for sale:

Manufacturer:
SanDisk Corporation
Mfg Part#: SDCFB-4096-A10
Buy.com Sku: 10369455
Item#: CRH2KG
Buy.com Sales Rank: 1244

The manufacturer's website describes the product thusly:


SanDisk Standard CompactFlash® Card 4GB
SDCFB-4096


Features:

. High transfer rate for fast copying and downloading
. Built to last, with an operating shock rating of 2,000Gs, equivalent to a ten-foot drop
. 5-year limited warranty

Is anyone using this particular CF card in their Book Port successfully? I want to be confident that a particular 4GB card will work.

Kelly
