These adapters have been available for SmartMedia for several years. And SmartMedia has the advantage of being about 20% cheaper than Sony's proprietary Memory Sticks. It seems likely that a SuperDrive could read and write to them, but I wonder whether they could be formatted as other than FAT 12 floppies? Even this would not be a stopper, since MUG should be able to do the job.
I picked up one today and it apears to be a no go with the Apple II. I tried it on the IIgs in a SuperDrive and it was unable to read it. So I tried formatting it and I get an error. So while it seemed unlikely I figured I'd try an 800k drive on the disk port, alas, no luck that way either. Unfortunately it also doesn't work with a usb floppy drive connected to a Mac. Requires a regular 1.44mb floppy drive and pre OSX OS. Wayne
