    I just bought a Kingston SDHC 4gig class 4 SD card and it works perfectly as a readboost drive on my Dell Vostro 1700 laptop.

    Is that with Vista or XP? What make is the card reader hardware?

    I know the Ricoh hardware used by Samsung in some of its notebooks works with SDHC under Vista but not XP.

    Oops. It was the SDHC working at all which got my attention, not how it was working.
