HP/Compac won't ship to Puerto Rico. Does anyone know of a company that I can find a Dual Slot Expansion pack for my 3955 and will ship down here. Of course, I don't want to pay an arm & leg for it either, not to mention the shipping charges.
Thanks,

Doc

Doc,

Try Amazon.com or Mobileplanet.com as a start.

I like San Juan ..............

Thanks, I'll try them.

As far as SJ, its filled with 3 million non-drivers. If they'd stay out of my way, it might go there more often...

Amazon.com wont ship to my PR address or my FPO address and Mobileplanet.com wants $40 more for it so I just gave up. Any more ideas????

Doc,

Do a search for the Item on Pricegrabber.com and that will show a bunch of places that have it .... then look at these places for shipping.

Whats the difference between the Nexian Dual flash card expansion pack and the one from Compaq, both of which I saw on your site?

The Nexian product is a Dual-CF Expansion Pack. The Compaq product is a Dual-PC Card (PCMCIA) Expansion Pack.

You get more for your buck (but put more bucks up front first) with a PC card or dual PC card expansion sleeve. You can alway use a CF to PCMCIA adapter to use all of your CF cards in the PC card expansion sleeve.

Once has 2 compact flash slots os you can use compact flash device. Compact flash devices are about the size of a matchbook cover. The other has 2 PCMCIA slots. PCMCIA devices are about the size of a credit card. PCMCIA devices are used in laptops as well. You can use a compact flash device in the PCMCIA sleeve using an adapter.

You really need to figure out what deviced you want to use with the iPAQ before deciding on the sleeve. The PCMCIA sleeves have more options because you can use both PCMCIA device as well as CF size devices in it. You can only use CF size devices in the the CF sleeves.

Thanks to all. I went with the Dual PC expansion pack, I found it on PageComputer.com for $172 plus $ 21 for shipping (the cheapest I could find that would ship here). Thanks for everyone's help...
