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 it's a little hard to remove 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: It is very useful, and very cheap usb card reader. It's plug and play, and working on windows xp/vista without driver.
Cons: Build quality is poor. The material is very cheap plastic, and fragile (esp. caps cover) Can't read sdhc cards
Other Thoughts: No other thoughts .
Bottomline: For that price it's very good card reader. Transfer speed could be better, but the price is the best part of this reader :)
Pros: - Reads xD cards, a must for Olympus camera users- Reads Sony memory stick/memory stick duo/m2 cards, a must for Sony-Ericsson phone users- The most affordable xD card reader on this site as far as I know- Slides over and completely seals the card that was inside the reader which is pretty neat
Cons: - It used to be able to slide over and completely seal the card that was inside the reader which was neat, but that cap broke off.- It has to be plugged in, otherwise, it's hard to tell when the contacts have lined up, especially with m2/duo cards
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: In the end, it's still worth it. I use it all the time to transfer photos from my camera and songs and photos to and from my cell phone. It's the best-priced unit, but with that comes the flaw of shotty build quality
Pros: I've nicknamed mine the "Blue Beluga" and it's been very useful for me. I have both a Sony Camera and a Casio so having the ability to upload pictures from both devices considering the different memory cards is very handy. The red indicator light on one side helps make sure you have inserted the memory card the correct way.
Cons: Was a bit difficult to figure out in the beginning. Memory cards have to be inserted in a very specific orientation depending on whether you are using MS Duo or regular SD Card. I just got used to using it and now have figured it out. In order to do this I had to look inside with a bright light and see which way each card need to be handled.
Other Thoughts: The end which covers the USB comes off and can be lost very easily. Just need to be careful, that's all.
Bottomline: A very great value, and extremely useful.
Pros: Although the SD/MMS/XD/MS/DUO version is slightly more expensive than the SD/MMC-only version, its ability to take memory stick DUO cards directly is ratherly impressive. 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.
Cons: This is super kool
Other Thoughts: if you purchase you you will be the koolest person on the block and everyone will like you the bests!
