Card Reader
os:
Windows XPAccepted everything i chucked at it SD,Sony Memory Stick and XD. Not tried any other types as i dont own em but the ones i tried handled flawlessly. would definitley recommend. Great value.
Yes the one i had had XD Slot
To answer previous review Yes the one i had had XD Slot
Limitations
os:
Windows XPIt's small it's cheap and so far works in a fashion.
It does not like being plugged into either my 2 metre or 3 metre usb extension leads. The lead that comes with it is about 300mm long which doesn't ( for me) reach down the back of the pc. I have it plugged into a passive hub that has a 300mm lead on it and all appears well.
This device will only work with ONE card plugged in at a time. so you can't transfer directly from one card type to another and you must remember to unplug any before plugging in another type.
My xp machine took 5 minutes to recognise the reader ? I also had to do a reboot !?
Because I cant put it where I want it on my desk because it wont work through an extension lead I cant give 5 stars but only 4
Maybe Unreliable
I bought one of these and it worked flawlessly for a few months but now the MS slot fails to recognise a card so I bought one of these

and I will see how it goes.
Small, cheap, but unreliable
os:
Windows XPI have now had two of these things fail. The first was DOA and would not read any media types. The second worked OK for a few weeks, then the chip has overheated and even fogged the blue plastic with the heat. No. 2 is now dead. Ebuyer's RMA policy is at least swift and hassle-free, but I would recommend getting something else.
Beware if using XP
os:
Windows XPSeems to work well under Windows 2000, but I could not get it to work at all under Windows XP SP3 (tried three different PCs). Asked for a refund...
Didn't work
os:
Windows XPTried one of these with an XD and SD card, failed to read either so have returned it for refund
XD Cards?
Could someone please confirm whether this item does indeed take a XD card?
It is not mentioned in the specs but another reviewer mentioned it, so would be good if someone else can confirm this.
