Hi Folks,

What is the difference between these two types of memory? Any
advantages or disadvantages of each? Do you need any adapters for
these?

Physically the same; the only difference between Secure Digital cards
and MultiMedia Cards is that Secure Digital cards have a write-protect
switch for added data security.

SanDisk told me that SD is faster than MMC, and so did Simpletech.

SD card also have 2 extra pins for secure data feature. It's also
thicker.

Just about all devices that has SD slot can have MMC card but all
devices with MMC slot can't have SD card.

Newer is almost always faster.

Differences:
MMC is a free implementation, SD is under royalties (license fee to
pay for)
SD is bigger
SD is faster
SD has hw write protection feature (2 pins more)

It is not always true that a device supports both standard for older
equipments.
