I have been using CF modules for a while, and I interfaced to these using the TrueIDE mode. The benefit of this (from an electronic design point of view) is that it involves less elctrical connections. The downside is that this mode is not the default for the module. If you want to set TrueIDE, then you have to power cycle the module with one of the signal pins tied low. Are you thinking of designing this into some custom hardware or was it just for curiosity?
