Re: SanDisk Cruzer on OS9?

Tomo,

I bought the 256MB mini Cruzer and likewise had problems with my OS9
mac. It had problems negotiating with the USB system (according to
the System Profiler logs). After many emails with SanDisk's tech
support, the flash drive was replaced and I'm now a happy camper. It
works well and is very nice and compact. I'm using OS9.1 without any
additional drivers.
