Reads Writes Compact Flash Type I and Type II Cards / Easy Transfer Button / USB 2.0 and 1.1 Compatible

After buying several cheaper card readers (all of which either did not work or failed in a few weeks) I purchased the SanDisk ImageMate CF Reader. I use it on an IMac G5. No software was needed. It works flawlessly every time. I highly recommend this product. I have a semi-professional photographer friend who has had a similar wonderful experience.

It doesn't vacuum my apartment. It doesn't take children to kindergarten. It doesn't make coffee.
It's a compact flash card reader with a button. It reads compact flash cards.
Have a good day :)

I use this card reader to take pictures off cards from Canon Digital SLR cameras. Works great, fast enough for me. I go between an XP desktop and a Vista laptop and it is seamless on both. That feature (XP or Vista) was what I was looking for so that is important to me. I don't use the feature of the push button so I can't really comment on that.
I like this card reader!

It reader/writer is easy and intuitive to use, decent transfer speed, and it does what it's supposed to do.

It works as advertised. No need to install any drivers under Windows XP. I was able to read from Microdrive and CF without any issues.
