Hi all,
Before I order a GP2X from Craig's, I'm not fully understanding some of the advice about SD card readers and rechargeable batteries.
I have a USB card reader, a 512MB Sandisk card, and a 2GB Sandisk card. When I insert them into the USB card reader, Windows recognizes the card as a drive. I have the option of formatting as FAT32. The FAQ warns not to format the card as FAT32, but rather to format the card "using the card reader". I'm confused about how the card reader can format the card. Are there any off-the-shelf (CircCity, BBuy) Sandisk-brand device that can do this?
Also, which brand / model of rechargeable AAs should I pick up? Someone was suggesting buying from Radio Shack, but not all rechargeables are equal.
Thanks!
