Yeah. Ive used the transcend 40 pin (standard desktop paralell IDE connector) flash devices. They are great. They perform exactly like a CF card of the same capacity. I believe they also make them in the 44pin (notebook IDE standard) variety.
You do need a small adaptor cable to provide power to the transcend module.
On the 40-pin IDE version, it can take +5v from pin 15 of the IDE connector, but most interfaces do not provide powere here, and this is not part of the IDE standard, so the best deal is to just use the existing internal hardisk power circuit from the A1200, and make a small adaptor cable. Also, Im not sure if the 44pin version can take power from pin 15 or not..
