Flash Memory Card Comparison
xD Picture Card is another type of removable flash memory card. The xD Picture Card format is primarily used with digital cameras; however that also means that the reader shows up on printers and personal computers. I understand that currently only two camera manufacturers use the xD format. The media reader on my personal computer and printer have a slot which accepts an xD Picture Card flash module.
The xD Picture Card card dimensions are: 0.79 x 0.98 x .067 in. The
memory size may vary, but currently ships as either 512MB, 256MB, or 128M
Bytes of flash memory. There are number of other card types in this
family, refer to the Flash Memory Stick Formats.
