Re: Dell 700m SD cardslot - HowToUse?
I browsed on the web for hours, and all I found was that this issue has not
been worked out yet. People say, that some reverse engineering is needed for
this to work, and nobody has done it yet.
Anyways, thanks for the input. By the way, not only the Dell 700m, but all
laptops that come with the Texas Instruments PCI7420/PCI7620 controller has
the same issue. I saw Sony's, Acer's etc.
