Please log in for more thread options Thank you Klaus, yes, I do have a card reader on the PC and what you suggest
would of course work. Guess I'll have to do that.
I can also plug a memory stick into the PDA cradle and transfer
files via the memory stick.
Just bugs me that the drag/drop doesn't work :)
