Transfer Digital Pictures from Flashcard to CD? 56
chimpo13 writes "I'm riding a 40-year-old, Italian made 250cc motorcycle round the world and doing a journal with pictures (avoiding the 'blog' word). Small bike, not much room, and I'm doing this on the cheap. There is no laptop because you can't trickle charge one. I'm looking for a flashcard to CD burner so I can post digital pictures. I need reliability, battery power, and hopefully someone makes one with an option to 'save for web' to speed up uploads in Internet cafés. Unless someone else has a better idea. I leave from Sydney Australia in 4 months if anyone world wide wants to give me a tour of their town, email me."
Two MuVo2s + USB2.0 CF Reader = solution (Score:4, Insightful)
Either way, it is going to be more compact and reliable than dragging around a fragile CD writer + batteries and, unless you hope to buy them along the way, fragile and bulky CD-R discs. Copy the Win98 drivers onto a floppy, and you'll have no problem finding a compatible computer to upload images from the CF cards.
Why are the CD's in the equation (Score:4, Insightful)
Why not just buy extra flash cards, enough so that you don't fill them up completely between cafes.
Then use a wireless PDA with flash reader to upload in the cafe, but if you're lucky the will already have a flash reader.
