HP OmniBook 300 find!

I should've mentioned, it's the version which has a 40MB hard drive installed (it was available with a regular HDD, a 10MB flash card, or no mass storage).

There was a floppy disk drive available for the OmniBook series, but I don't think it works with the 300. I think the only real way of I/O data-wise with the 300 is the PC card slot, though it does have serial, parallel and IR ports. I do have a 32MB Sandisk flash card which I use with my 200LX, so hopefully it'll work with the OmniBook 300.

The 300 is really fussy about flash card compatibility, but I'd say you've got decent odds with the 32 MB one. Failing that, just use serial, or IR from the 200LX.
