A USB card reader is what... $20? The "CardReader" software for Palm
is about $15.

I'd suggest looking at the Palm File Browser (PZB.zip)
which lets you have a tree view of the SD card on the Palm, and to
select and copy files to and from the PC.

There's a non-free product called CardExport. Details at
http://www.softick.com/cardexport2/. It lets you use the Palm as a USB card
reader showing the Palm as just another drive on your Windows PC. The web
site offers a free evaluation copy. Don't know what limitations might be
imposed on that.
