While it is true that the ?SD? cards I?ve bought recently have actually been ?SD cards
with an adaptor so they can also fit into SD slots, it didn?t sound like that was what
Chuck was asking.
I have not seen an adaptor which will plug into a ?SD slot and then allow me to plug my
(visible-size) SD card into the adaptor. I do totally agree that both the adaptor and the
medium would be big enough to see in that case and that would be a good thing! However I
have seen applications for a ?SD card that would not mechanically work with the adaptor in
question, due to packaging constraints, so I would not expect that adaptor (if it exists)
to be a common item.

Are there such things as "microSD" to
"standard SD" adapters that allows
for insertion of standard SD into mcroSD slots?
Of course there are. Since both SD cards and ?SD cards have identical
electrical and protocol interfaces, those adapters are just passive pieces
of plastic and wires. In fact, a lot of ?SD cards sold these days come
packaged with a ?SD to SD card adapter.
