please recommend me a nice multicard reader. the mems i use often are sdhc, cf, sony duo, and mmc.

here is a super compact one i've been using but it lacks SDHC support :(
as you can see, the usb flips out. in contrast, others require you to carry the mini usb cable n much more bulky.

Kingston, on the cheapie side but it works and one great thing is that you don't need an adapter for microsd.

If you want something better, go with the Sandisk.
I've seen that one somewhere before.

I wouldn't be surprised if this was made for another company under a different name. The thing is that unlike the vast majority of generic card readers, at least this has the Kingston name attached and that we're assuming there is at least some quality control at work. Still doesn't look like a high end unit but it does look any worse than the no name generic brands.

I'm actually contemplating getting one of these Kingston units. I have a Sandisk reader which is nice and does SDHC as well as the usual card formats but I can't find my stupid microsd adapter.

What I meant to say is read the first reply in this thread.

Hrm...I could have sworn when I read this thread originally that both amazon links went to different sandisk units. Heh, that's one on me. That's what happens when you're watching a kid who just learned to crawl and stand up and replaying in a forum. :p
