Igor,

I don't think that the S2 can use a 2gb compact flash card because it is formatted with FAT32 and not FAT16.

As I understand it, the max size you can use with the S2 is 1gb.

Actually, the S2 can use 2GB cards .... based on FAT16 filesystem (not FAT32) .... FAT16 max size is approx. 2.2GB, or approx. 1.9GB after formatting. I think part of the confusion is because the manual doesn't really mention compact flash cards too much, and on the media page it shows a 1GB microdrive. The S2 supports FAT16 - 2GB max.
Regards,
Bill
