Default 2007 Accord PC slot

Hi, I own a 2007 Accord EXL and there is a pc slot available in the trunk. I have tried 2 different PCMCIA compact flash card adapters (Sandisk and Optex) with 2 different CF memory cards (Sandisk and OfficeDepot 2GB, both type II), and neither works.
However, both of these adapters/mem cards work in the CRV-2007 pc card slot. Has anyone got their pc card slot working in the 2007 Accord?
I'm not sure if it supports MP3/WMA playback like the CRV. The manual says the slot is only for factory use. But for the CRV the manual actually says for MP3/WMA playback.
For those trying out the pc card slots make sure your files are placed into FOLDERS (eg. "fast", "slow") on the memory card, and the card is formatted in FAT32 format.

I think you answered your question yourself

Accord - says for factory use only (my guess is updating navi)

CRV - says mp3/wma playback

I just got a reply from Honda as well. They said the same thing - factory use only.
It's surprising since the slot is available, and I would have thought all 2007 Hondas
would have the same NAVI system. Looks like the CRV has a better system than the Accord, although the price for the NAVI is probably the same.

BUT, if you hold down Map/Guide, Menu, and Cancel all at the same time you access the developer menu. There is a mem card button there and it will read all the files on the card you put in. Still can't use them though. BOO

Also, have you checked http://www.guicide.com/cars/2006civic/nav/hacks/

A nice little how to on changing the splash screen.
