I honestly have only started recently researching this so my knowledge is limited. I was approached about adapting some Pocket PC software to operate on the Windows 6 platform. After considering how I would go about doing that in the Compact Framework I received more details.
It seems there is a desire to utilize (re-use) CF Type II devices on a mobile phone platform (using more modern miniSD or microSD slots). While there exist plenty of microSD to CF adapters, there seems to be none going the other direction (even though I realize that would be an awkward looking adapter in physical design). Is this true and what prevents this technically?
There is nothing that does this currently. Likely because you can’t exactly fit a CF card in a MicroSD card….it would have to have some weird cable coming off of it, which would likely cause it to no longer fit in the slot. Also, CF is a Parallel interface while SD uses a Serial interface.
