Good card reader in memory card accessory

My Dell card reader in my computer dies a horrible death. After a long search I can only buy a used/refurbished card reader that has the same lifespan as my old one and that is not very good. I need a more reliable reader. I bought this wearable as an alternative to the above. It has been packaged in a blister pack with minimal instructions and is plug and play compatible with Windows XP Home. During the first connection, the computer did not recognize the reader. The second time I gave an error message. After restarting, I reinstalled the reader, everything worked. It reads SD, SDHC and Micro SD cards without any problems. It is convenient to have this card reader with SDHC capabilities at hand anytime, anywhere. ***** 11/21/2011 - Updated. 1/2 year, it still works perfectly. The last computer I use it with is a 2005 Apple iBook running Tiger (OS X 10.4.11). Plug and play SDHC cards with this iBook. I've also used it with Linux Mint 10 KDE (based on Ubuntu 10.10) - it also connects to an older P4 desktop system. A versatile SD/SDHC/Micro SD card reader that works flawlessly on multiple operating systems. What else would you like to ask?

Pros
  • LED indicates card installation and data traffic
Cons
  • Bad impression
