    Default Really simple SD/MMC card socket

    Found this about an hour ago. Tried it... Works like a champ. Take an old 'female' floppy drive connector, plug an SD card into it. Pins line up almost perfectly.
    And who doesn't have a few floppy drive cables laying around....
    Could it be any simpler than this?

    I'm almost sorry I found it... Very little sleep since last night!

    Nice way to reuse ol' dusty stuff indeed. Nice finding.

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

    Hey mister_e, do you have any sample routines to share that make use of SD cards?
    It would open up new worlds to be able to move from I2C EEPROMS to 1Gb SD cards!
