AFAIK standard (non-proprietary) CompactFlash, SmartCards, Memory Stick, et al, are seen as (removable) storage with typical allowed attributes. I can set a file/folder/card to 'locked' in my camera but when plugged into the computer this will show as 'read only.'
"read-only" is a filesystem attribute. You can still format the card and kill the filesystem. Not good for a secure router. The only consumer flash card with physical write protect switch is the "Secure Digital" stuff, afaik. -Dan -- [-] Omae no subete no kichi wa ore no mono da. [-]
