Yes, there are. I own a miniSD one, and they are not hard to find. The theoretical maximum size of non-HC (mini)SD cards is 4GB, not 2.

I tried it in my Cybook, and it works fine when connected to my PC (as a USB disk). I can read and write to it and it shows up with the correct size and free space.

However, the Cybook *software* does not recognize it at all. The standard directories are not created and files on it do not show up in the library.

Well, I think it is. If it is physically capable of reading and writing them, and my experience shows that it is, the rest is software.

SDHC support is something else again. I tried an 8GB SDHC card, and it choked on it; it hung at the boot screen.

Regards,

Marco.
