The search for aproppiate memory devices can prove frustratingly complicated on compatibility aspects, not to mention price, however Viking Components has answered my prayers time and again. This flash card, like other products from Viking Co i ve purchased, has performed excellently on a digital camera and laptop computer, (with the aid of the adapter). This combo is far easier to use than than the uncomfortable plugging and unplugging of slow USB cables, since it becomes, in essence, another drive in your laptop. Overall this has expanded my phototaking possibilities and made my life much easier transferring them.

I've never heard of Viking before but decided to try it. Setting up on my ancient Toshiba 2130 (it's a 486dx75) was so fast and effortless. It didn't come with instructions, but none were needed - i just slid the card in and Windows did the rest.

The 64MB CF card can hold about 65 pics in normal mode (I use a Nikon CoolPix 800) so that should be more than enough for a weekend trip. Using the laptop adapter should provide for limitless photos.

I'll look for Viking products from now on. And to think they just sat in coffee shops singing about Spam.
