I have also read and seen cases of xD cards for olympus not working in
fuji cameras and vice versa.  Apparently olympus uses xD type H and fuji
uses xD type M.  Way to go.  Make the xD cards completely non standard
and incompatible even with each other.  xD has no future whatsoever in
my opinion, and I would not take a camera using xD seriously (and would
never buy one).  It is a designed disaster.
