Software to write to PCMCIA datacards?

I'd like to update the database for my Apollo GX55 GPS. $120 for the

datacard is a PCMCIA card, so wouldn't it be possible to work with it
with a plain old laptop or a $10 reader from Best Buy? I'm wondering
if someone has found a way to do this.
Charles,
When you asked about this on the Husky list, I didn't know you were trying
to duplicate the datacard.
Don't know if it helps, but I used a program called Winhex to duplicate the
compact flash card for a GNS 480. You might check and see if it fits the
bill.

a pilot and an aviator. One is a technician; the other is an artist
in love with flight. - E. B. Jeppesen
