IT shows are usually too crowded to take any videos or photos...Thinking of using a small flight vehicle with a video camera under it in future and fly it in. I just stay outside. Don't have to squeeze and push through the crowd.

Something like this...

Configured with a satellite data link system, Predator has an endurance of 40 hours and is equipped with an EO/IR stabilized gimbal containing two color video cameras and a forward-looking infrared (FLIR) camera as well as a synthetic aperture radar (SAR)

Or mount a video camera on the Honda Asimo robot and send the robot in...

Yes, i bought a digimate and coupled it to a 120gb hdd.

First problem is to format the harddisk into FAT32. Windows simply refuses to do so for any harddisk partition > 32 gb. Finally found a software that does the trick, forces windows to format the harddisk into FAT32.

Now it is running fine. Copying files do take quite sometime. Was trying to backup a 2 gb mem pro duo and it took like ~ 10 mins.

But i suppose speed is not a concern for me. 120 gb is good enough for a 3 weeks vacation to iceland for me.

This ultra fast program converts to fat32 from command line. My digimate up and running now =)

nah if you studied windows... basically you can just go "control panel" and then "computer management", over there you can split your 120GB into many partition of different size, after that format them 1 by 1 to NTFS/Fat32/Fat16 or wateva...

 

[pompey]

I heard the "new" D40x is coming. Any idea how much?

 

[fv18m]

Bro,

Dun rub it in, although I would also like to share - got mine at $65 apiece too on Thur...:bsmilie:

Ah yes. and your 120 gig portable harddisk which you want to bring overseas to backup your CF cards will end up having 4 × 30 gb drives. Will it be smart enough to use multiple drives to backup or will it stop after using the 30 gb in the first partition? I spend $185 to buy the device, so i will get a large capacity hdd...

I was struggling with windows for a full 2 hour. anyway, the fat32format.exe from ridgecorp does the trick nicely. Now my Digimate states i got 114 gb free. (and ready for the trip)

Thanks, but i hate windows. *argh*.

If I did read somewhere, the digimate will continue to use another partition once it is full.
but anyway if you doesn't have a charger, most probably the batt will die on you before you even done copying 32GB of data.

as for me, I only formatted 10GB worth of storage in Fat32 just for my photos... and I don see how I use more than that in a normal 1week+ trip.

You can attempt to leech from Sg****s.com... No need to waste that effort of even going down to Suntec itself... :bsmilie:

That's a spying tool I suppose... :think:

 

[sgvideoman]

I used PartitionMagic 7.0 fr PowerQuest and it works too to convert my 40GB hdd into FAT32 file sys. PartitionMagic 8.0 should work flawlessly too.

Anyone came in the late afternoon ard 4pm? Sony gathered their girls at the main entrance for group shots. i didnt managed to catch the whole group with my 50mm n limited space, but at least i got my favourite few. :lovegrin:

Best Bargains indeed has the best bargains for Kingston CF, unfortunately the queue turned me off. Oh well, perhaps i'll drop by their shop at SLS instead. :think:
