I'm hoping to be able to use the SD card in my Palm to transfer files between the office and home. Seems simple enough!

However, all the solutions I found so far are too slow (20 minutes to transfer a 2Mb file), or only provide a partial solution.

Has anyone found a way to simply copy a large file (say a 5Mb Zip of some document I'm working on) up on their Palm and down on their home computer?

I willing to pay money for such an application, as long as I don't have to jump through hoops to make the transfer, and as long as it is fast. I would expect the transfer of such a 5Mb file to take no more than 30s at the extreme.

Thanks for any lead

Probably your best solution will be to get a card reader -- I have the Dazzle -- which will attach to the PC via USB port. It sees the cards as an additional drive. I have two -- one for home and one for office, but they are easy enough to carry as well.

SyncWizard is a software solution as well, but this might be too slow for your taste.
