USB 2 Reader Quick reader, poor design. It does a great job copying images to my Mac, but the flimsy lid is a piece of poo-poo. It stays on tight, which is good, until you try to open it. The force required to open it pulls the lid completely off making the ball-groove hinges useless. It's only a matter of time until the weak arms containing the hinges snap off, leaving the reader exposed to the elements.

fast This reader is very fast - compared to my usb1 and non-cardbus pcmcia compact flash readers this one is about 4x (or more) as fast. It is small and compact, the only thing I don't like is the required USB cable (though it is included) instead of a built in USB plug - just one more thing to bring with my laptop.

Great little reader I'm a Mac user (OS 10.4) so I particularly like that this reader doesn't require a separate driver. Cards mount on my desktop as any drive would, and the software that came with my Canon Powershot G6 senses the card automatically.
I have had no trouble with the cover hinge as another reviewer mentioned. I love the fact that it's small and lightweight and fits into a tiny pocket on my camera case so I never lose track of it.
The LED lets you know when files are being t...

Quite good for the price This little reader is fast and as easy to use as a USB flash drive. Pop in your card, plug it in, and wahlah, all your files are shown. Transfers are very fast and easy. It uses a standard USB cable, so it's likely you could use the same cable for a variety of devices (MP3 player, camera, cell phone)
The device is somewhat flimsy, however and the front always snaps off when you try to open the unit rather than working like a hinge, as it should. This is somewhat annoying to have to ...

Fast and does what it should A simple, cheap investment. This CF reader actually does what it should, i.e. transfer info from compact flash to the computer. Previous Kodak 1.0 multi-card reader had issues after a few weeks, and stopped working after 2 months. This one is much faster and is still working. Ahhhhhh

Very reliable, but not very well made. After having two SanDisk card readers, and one LaCie card reader die on me, I invested in this Lexar card reader. For the money, it has worked flawlessy with Pro compact flash cards up to 4GB in size. I am very impressed with the transfer speeds, and the unit is not too big for traveling. The door that covers the slot, however, is very flimsy and easily deattaches (but fortunately easily reattaches too?) I use Mac OS X 10.4.8 and it works just fine. I also used it with Windows XP without any ins...
