SDHC cards have become very popular among flash-drive makers, however there are still not many devices supporting this format. Most of them are digital still cameras, which have come out this year.

Till today the Treo 680 boasted of the exclusive support of SDHC cards. The users of the Treo 700p solved the problem by copying the respective driver slot of the Treo 680. Probably the trick will take effect with the Treo 650.
