Nor in thier last AA adverts iirc (ish #21)
I really do hope that they do make one still!!! I just bought a Canon Digi
camera which uses Compact flash. I am currently getting the images off the
camera by taking the flash card (64meg) out of the camera and then putting
it into my Psion and then running the AmigaNCP software to access the
images stored on the card.
As you can imagine, it is connected via serial (at 115200 on the standard
port) but it takes foreeevveeerrrr to download images from it! I took about
6 images on the camera (600k each, 1600x1200) and copied them all over.. it
must have taken well over 5minutes to transfer them! :-/

So how fast is that then? I have been wondering how quick USB is for a while
now. On ythe one hand we may get USB access on our amigas soon (via clock,
pci, however) but thats only half the prolem isnt it! we still need the
damn software which can actually comunicate with the devices (esp my
camera! ;-) )
