[BNM] Card reader that uses floppy drive interface rather than IDE/ATAPI/USB et

[Derek Clarke]

No, the only floppy drives with built in card readers use a normal 
floppy interface for the floppy drive but a USB interface to the card 
reader.

You can get CF to IDE conversion cables though, that work with CF memory 
cards and Microdrives that use the CF pseudo-IDE interface but don't 
work with other CF devices.
