Pros: - A really small card reader, which means I now have a tiny 2GB USB drive (when the card's not in my phone).
Cons: - Needs high power to work, so it wouldn't work when plugged into my Mac keyboard. That's a bit annoying, since it means I have to plug it into the back of my Mac where it can get enough power. (I don't know if this is normal for card readers, but no USB drive I've used demands this.) - Card isn't enclosed, so I wouldn't want to leave it inserted long term, like while it's in my pocket, although maybe it wouldn't hurt it. - No keyring loop.
Other Thoughts: - It's quite a secure fit in a USB socket. I had to pull out the plug alongside in order to get a good grip to pull the card reader out. - A quick read/write test with my Mac showed it works just fine.
Bottomline: Small and cost effective.
