Oh no! Poor thing you, Stuart. There actually was a discussion of the compatible non compatible Microdrives a while back, and from my own research I'll tell you it's really hard to find a usable Muvo microdrive these days.
If you do a search on 'muvo question' in the archives, you'll find the related discussion. Or you can follow this link: http://www.mail-archive.com/cgi-bin/htsearch?config=pentax-discuss_pdml_net&restrict=&exclude=&words=muvo+question Anyway, I've since come to the conclusion that it's not worth the trouble looking for one, considering the price of CF cards is coming down, not to mention they tend to be more reliable, durable, and less power-draining. eBay's a good option (I've got my eye on a 2gb Lexar 80x, but I've got to sell some stuff first..). Good luck with offloading that drive..

Older models., serial numbers ending 43B seem okay, but newer ones (mine ends 45C) do not work. > > -- > Stuart mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > >
