Typically we don’t give kudos to “competing” storage devices to that of USB but since SanDisk was nice enough to create a USB Micro Mate card reader for the Ultra II Secure Digital media card we chimed in for a post.
SD cards are so popular today because the gigabyte capacity in relation to the form factor size is such a great trade off. The average user on the street would associate an SD card with a camera, but we know heavy users of SD cards use them for embedded operating systems, GPS systems and hand-held […]
Yet another “i” product for all those Apple gadgets, but this time we feel it’s a product worth mentioning. The iPADock is a dock station to power or sync all your Apple gear in one handy location. The iDevices has designated USB power ports, designated USB-to-PC sync ports and additional flash memory ports for SD […]
The desk drawer to my left is full of card readers, USB sticks, cables etc. It’s just too much. Last week Brando sent me an email with their latest idea to reduce the clutter and global waste of all these connection devices. It was a USB cable with an SD card reader built; in-line. Take […]
It would be nice to have a dock station to house all your hard drive and memory gadgets…say, one interface to connect them all. Oh wait, that’s what the Brando Multi-Functional Dock Station does…USB + eSATA + 2 port hub + 4 slot card reader. All this dockability in a slick looking design: The multi […]
I’ve often thought of what shape [not] would make the perfect card reader and USB hub, and I must admit the idea of fitting all this into a can never crossed my mind. However, our friends at Brando did think outside the box, with this canned shaped card reader and USB hub. The 3 port […]
Elcom puts a nice twist into their latest card reader with a pop-top suitcase like storage area. I guess Elcom wanted to put a different meaning into flash storage. Connection to your PC is done via USB and the card reader supports SDHC, SD, MMC, xD and the Memory Stick family. The Elcom MR-C12 not […]
Brando is distributing the new iMONO 39 in 1 card reader. Talk about tight, Brando packed a lot of connectivity into one small USB dongle. Makes you wanna buy some more flash. Albeit a more common trend these days, the iMONO does support the newer SDHC format which is not backward compatible. In addition you […]
Technology can be a love / hate relationship. A couple days ago Brando released a product which I think is just brilliant…the company badge holder that doubles as a card reader. For those working the corporate gig and require an ID badge, I would think this card reader fits the bill perfectly. What better way […]
For the minimalist the PQI USB card reader S721 is what you’ve always wanted. There is no better way to compliment the microSD card size than with a micro USB card reader. ~~~ The PQI S721 is exceptionally small. It also supports the microSDHC format so an ideal purchase for future use. The microSD USB […]
Tis the season for card readers…yesterday we had the latest from Kingston for the MobileLite announcement, now Buffalo introduces their latest line up – the MCR-A28 USB card reader. This USB card reader supports 30 card types and most notably the new SDHC and Memory Stick Pro format – which are not backward compatible with […]
The MobileLite 9-in-1 card reader is Kingston Technology’s version of hatch back – reminds me more of a beetle. MobileLite takes the shape of a flash drive but where you would typically find the flash memory, Kingston has placed a host of card reader slots. The top pops open reveling the memory card slots. The […]
