Default Extra Storage & Compaq ipaq

I gathered a great deal of information from this very informative site and so looking for more advice or experiences.

I have recently bought a D60 and have 64Mb and 128Mb CF cards which I download through the D60 onto P4 2.2Ghz PC, shooting High/fine I am good for around 25 shots per 64Mb.

One problem is the D60 viewfinder is a bit too small to really know whether you can delete a shot or not.

I also own an ipaq 3660 (64Mb) Pocket PC 2002

I am looking for more storage options, probably 1Gb and think the IBM microdrive is in pole position.

What I am wondering is does anyone use the ipaq for viewing photos, do you need any extra software, what CF jacket is recommended (bearing in mind the battery life of an ipaq), is the ipaq compatible with microdrives and is data transfer (USB cradle) any faster/slower

Alternativley the 10Gb digital wallets look good for transfering images but this might be yet another gadget to carry around rather than using my current investments to their full potential.

Any advice always welcome

the ibm microdrive will work in an Ipaq I use it for storing Mp3s but I do not think it will work very well to view files because of the resolution. The pic will be bigger than the screen so you only a portion of your pic at a time. Also accessing the Microdrive for viewing might take longer since the Ipaq is running at around 233 MHz and only has 64 meg of RAM. Then again I have an older version of the Ipaq so things might have changed.

Use the D60 and Ipaq as well. Wondering if anyone has experimented with using the Ipaq as viewer with any kind of remote control program.
Is there any software that will run under Windows CE?
