Ok along the same line I have a KINGSTON KTT-4500/4 4MB card that
may fit older laptops. I wonder if there is data to use it for
a CP/M system (pinouts and the like).

Has anyone ever seen one of these?

It's a credit card sized memory device made by Epson.
Allegedly stored anywhere from 16 - 128K per card. Used some sort of
backup battery for the memory. I don't believe this was flash.
Apparently Epson OEM'd them to various companies for use in various
devices, presumably including laptops.
Roland synths use these (some of them anyway).
Did I not sent a reader to you at one point?
