A pain in the [butt]
(2 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Aug 27, 2003I have had one of these for weeks and have had Hell's own time trying to get it to work with Win2K. When it is kind enough to let itself be installed, it stops woring when I restart. I got complex instructions from SanDisk support involving a registry edit and it failed again. Now they are telling me I need to use it with a powered hub. I bought one, and I will try it, but for now it is an expensive paperweight.

Exactly what I needed
(5 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Jun 16, 2003I have a digital camera that uses CompactFlash, and a Palm that supports secure digital cards. I wanted something that would enable me to read both formats. This product came to the rescue. It works with no hassles on both MacOS X and Windows XP. It is compact as well, I can put it in my camera bag and bring it anywhere.

Incredible convenience!
(5 out of 5) by M. Young on May 8, 2003 (LAs Vegas, NV)So two things happened that [were bad]:
1) I bought a laptop, not realizing that it didn't have a floppy drive.
2) My digital camera came with a secure digital card that was WAY too small to be useful (16MB), and I immediately replaced it with something practical. Now what to do with that tiny little card?
Needing a way to transfer files at home and at work, I bought this great little card reader. I love it!!
The set up was a little shaky; I couldn't get get it to work and it kept crashing my computer. After about 10 minutes of this, I put the card back in the camera, reformatted it, and PRESTO! Works great, and with XP required no set up software. I can hardly believe something this useful is also so [inexpensive]. I guess they figure they'll make money selling bigger cards.

It does what it should do.
(5 out of 5) by mortalfloater on Jul 10, 2002 (California USA)I like the Sandisk 2 In 1 USB Reader for Compact Flash and Secure Digital cards. What can I say, it does what it supposed to do, and does it well.

Great size for travel
(4 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Feb 5, 2003I loved the size and functionality of the product. The file transfer speed is not bad as I thought and it can support flash, SD and sony stick. Only drawback is the fact that plug and play is only for Windows XP and up. For Win 98 and 2000 one must install the driver. It becomes a hassles to install a driver in a internet cafe when you are travelling.
