USB Linker
The new USB version of the F2A linker fixes the problems that
users encountered after the release of the GBA SP. Old printer
port version works fine with the GB Advance, but many users reported
problems when trying to write roms to the flash card using SP -
the cartridge was not recognized. (To solve this you have to get
the new USB version). F2A USB Linker is also compatible with Flash
Advance PRO and Turbo cards and
of course with all F2A carts that came with the Printer port version
of the linker.
Flash-2-Advance cartridges can be used with GB-Bridge to play
GB/GBC roms on Game Boy COLOR or Advance. You can also emulate NES,
Spectrum, SEGA roms or use Software like PoGo
Shell that will let you read PC *.txt files on gba, use it
to listen to MIDI music files and view JPG and BMP pictures as
well as do lots of other cool stuff..

Reading out GBA game ROMs
When your original Nintendo GBA game has been plugged in
to the Flash Advance Linker, you can use Flash
2 Advance Linker software to read out gba rom data and save
it to your local PC harddrive as a ROM file (*.GBA) Flash Advance
Linker also lets you read out the savegame to store it in an extra
file - you won't loose any game data, e.g. when the battery in your
original GBA game gets empty.
Writing GBA ROMs to Flash Advance Cards
The best thing about F2A is that it also lets you write
Gameboy roms to Flash 2 Advance Cards! Use the provided software
to select ROM files from your harddrive, and write them through
the printer or USB port connected Flash Advance Linker to the Flash
Advance Cartridge. Its just like writing files to ReWritable CD
with a CD-Recorder or sending MP3 files from PC to MP3 Player. You
can even save multiple games into one single flash
advance card! 64M card can hold up to 2 games, 128M - 4 games,
256M - 8 games. Most Gameboy Advance games are 32Mbits or 64Mbits
big (4 or 8 Mega Bytes on your PC)
