Photography buffs: Portable card readers with a screen?

Get her a good quality lens or some lighting equipment. That would be a far better gift.

Word.

Portable Storage Devices (PSDs) like the Epson are more catered to people like the travel photographer or the backpacker. If your wife is just doing something like outdoor portraiture, I would definitely invest in lighting, flashes, and a very good portraiture lens. As for the storage, get her more CF cards or just bring the laptop with you. Or go for a PSD without a screen (Hyperdrive HD80 or stuff here); just take as many pictures as you want, dump them on the drive, and delete the bad ones on your computer afterwards.

takes CF cards, but they also make an SD adapter.

Hmm, that looks interesting. Small and does what I want. Bookmarked for later, thanks!

Edit: Nevermind, reviews don't look so hot

check out your local COmpusa clearance sale...I found a Flashtrax 40 gig for $150 before a $100 MIR recently. Don't know if the rebate is good, but saw that the price at my store was down to $130. It plays DIVX, has a usb port and a CF slot.
