My MP3 player skips regularly and it uses SmartMedia. This isn't a tame bike
;) I could probably build a shock isolation mount, but it would take up too
much room. I only have a couple of inches of depth in a roughly 12" x 8"
tankbag to work with. Any more than that and I won't have room for the rest
of the crap I haul with me on rides. Besides, I'm a cheap bastard and
Compact Flash is dirt cheap these days. I picked up a 128m card for my
camera for $30 today (PNY at Best Buy. $50 with $20 instant rebate).
