Not worth it 2007-03-04
This card reader isn't any faster or more convenient than downloading directly with my digital camera, and was a lot less reliable. We bought a pcmcia reader and are much more satisfied with it.
A sinch to use! 2003-11-20
This product is great. I was up and running in minutes.
I bought it because my Digital Camera refused to communicate with my pc. I just followed the included instructions and within minutes all of my pictures were downloaded.
A poor implementation of Plug N' Play 2003-09-15
This device should configure a lot easier than it does. I'm a programmer with many years of experience configuring hardware. I found this one annoying to set up.

You may have to download new drivers for this device from the simpletech website. Once you get the correct version of the drivers, and install it following the instructions EXACTLY (the device cannot be plugged in while loading the software) it eventually works ok.

Note that there are two DIFFERENT part numbers for this device. 90000-40388-001 and 90000-40388-002. The 001 version does not support some platforms that the 002 version does. I recieved the 001 and have had no end of difficulty with it.

If I had it to do over again, I would spend a bit more, and get a device from another company that supported more than two media types.

Excellent Storage Device! 2003-07-22
Primarily I bought this item 'cause I needed to transfer the pictures from my digital Olympus D-340R camera to my notebook. My notebook doesn't have a serial port, which is the one used to transfer the pictures, and I needed a fast, reliable, easy to use and non-battery device. And I found this excellent device, although you'll think that its plastic package is to delicate.

I recommend you to buy this excellent device, but be aware that if you are going to use it on a Windows 98 based PC, you should download the drivers for Windows 98...It's an ideal plug and play device for Windows XP!!

Works sometimes 2003-05-07
From what I understand of these types of hardware, they are created in batch by varying hardware component manufacturers and the resold to vendors (e.g. Simpletech) who combine them into the nice products we buy for distribution.

Unfortunately SimpleTech doesn't quite get things right. The driver installation for this product went smoothly on Windows XP. It was a matter of clicking the mouse a few times, a reboot, and plugging in the device into a USB slot.

However, what followed afterwards and for succeeding attempts at getting the thing to be recognized by your PC would be what I call my own form of digital gambling. Some days the device works when I plug it in, and some days it doesn't. The odds are usually not in my favor.

I would have much preferred a more expensive item that worked all the time.
