Exploiting the TRGpro's CompactFlash slot (continued)
In our analysis of TRG's development kit, we found no fewer than 55 new library calls related to CF memory, peripherals, and the FAT file system. With that in mind, implementing CF support is clearly not a trivial undertaking for the one-man Palm development shop, which is where the balance of the Palm OS development community hails from. It'll require some time for smaller developers to bone up on the required library calls necessary to implement CF support into their applications. We urge TRG to give as much assistance to these shops as possible -- or their memory standard isn't going to fly.
