For us Sony PSP and digital camera users, this is a must-have gadget. Get this usb drive and lose that MS duo gum adapter.6/6/2006 Staff wrote:We tested the SD/MMS/XD/MS/DUO adapter with a 2GB Pro Duo and we experienced some difficulties in removing the Pro Duo from the adapter. The Pro Duo is a little too short for the adapter, so you will need your fingernail in taking out the Duo after usage.6/27/2006 Chris wrote:I found out that your card reader does NOT handle a Patriot 2GB 130x and higher cards, but ONLY 1GB and lower. I gave mine away to friends because I only have fast 2GB and higher cards, and I bought a replacement SD reader from Office Depot that does work on the larger fast cards.
Pros: This far exceeds what you expect to get for the price. It is compact, works with every memory card I have from 512m to 16G, and you can even store one in it. For two dollars you'll find you need more than one. It doesn't have lights or anything silly on it. It just fits the purpose that it was made for and does so well.
Cons: I can't think of a thing. There is nothing about this item that I wish that it had and anything that takes away from it's functionality.
Other Thoughts: I like the grey/black color.
Bottomline: Buy two at least. You'll want one to keep with your camera, one in the car for your phone, one at the office for other people to use, etc...
Pros: Works perfectly. Good build. .
Cons: NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING! NOTHING!
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: Just buy it. Great value for the money! . . .
Pros: The item is cheap, small and it works perfectly. What else?
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: does not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 charactersdoes not contain more than 500 characters
Bottomline: Really a good bargain
Pros: - Works just fine;- not ugly;- can be hide like a pendrive;
Cons: none at all... maybe once that it needs to take sometime to get read buy my PC... but It just happened once.
Other Thoughts: I bought in DX the Micro SD with SD adapter wrong for a friend that told me to buy that to put on her celphone. ok... when it cames she saw it was wrong and didn´t know what to do with it. So I told her to buy an adapter.. So I did.
Bottomline: cheap and usefull... if you need a single reader, just buy it. But if you need multiple readers, DX got a lot of them!
