I finally found a mobility kit with a 4GB microSD and a micro-to-mini adapter; The problem is that the card will not click into the Dingoo no matter how it's pushed in.  If I hold the card in it will read and even boot to Dingux but it just shoots back out when I let go.  Has anyone else had this prolem?  It is the miniSD slot or the adapter?  This is a real disappointment as I've been looking forward to running Dingux since I got my A320 months ago.

Never mind, I worked it out myself.  The fix?  I stuck a bent paperclip into the slot and yanked out the slide mechanism, spring and all.  Now I just slide the miniSD card in and it works like a charm.  The only downside is that to remove the card I have to prise it out with a paperclip or tap the unit against my hand until the card slides out.  Still, it reads and boots to Dingux so I can't really complain.

I would have just taped the card in with a piece of electrical tape. Thats at least better than yanking out parts. Also you might want to make sure the card doesn't fall out inadvertnetly.
