Abstract
The invention is directed to a memory card that includes a device connector and a host connector that conform to a device connection standard and a host connector standard respectively. The dimensions of the memory card may substantially conform to dimensions of a memory card standard. However, there may be irregularities in the shape of the memory card that are not consistent with the form factor of the memory card standard. The memory card may further include a cover to fit over the host connector. In that case, the housing and the cover collectively define a form factor of the memory card that substantially conforms to a form factor of the memory card standard.
