It seems all the digital cameras these days use the SD cards. I cant
even find the Smart Media cards that my Olympus needs, at least not in
stores and I refuse to use Ebay any longer. (the last SM card I got
on Ebay was dead and the seller refused to replace it.
It amazes me that these new cards are 1 and 2 gig, and sell for less
than what I paid for a 64 meg card a couple years ago.
I cant afford a new camera, so I was wondering if there are adaptors
so I can use a SD card in a camera made for SM cards?

No adapters that I know of.
Why do you need a new SM card if you have a 64 MB card, or did it die?

Have you tried B&H?

B&H list one SmartMedia card a 128 MB Olympus.

An it is out of stock.

May be some cards at Olympus: You did not say which camera you had, so I
used my C-2040 to search. The C-2040 uses a Smart Media card up to 128 MB. I
checked the price, $75.99 for 128 MB, the 64 MB card is $34.99.

If you are not interested in the Olympus panorama function, then you can use
any brand of Smart Media Card. That you can find.
