Use micro SD to save PCB space

[GoogleCodeExporter]

You could use microSD holder instead of the large SD connector to save PCB 
space and make room for more expansion I/O etc.

Actually, this will not provide more space on the board for I/O. Addtional I/O 
would 
require addtional layers to be added to the board and a new I/O connector would 
need 
to be added. This would result in the I/O conenctor not being comapatible and 
the 
board cost would increase due to the addtional layers. In addtion using microSD 
cards will remove the slot from being used by a lot of full size SD cards on 
the 
makrket.
