Review on Sony PCMCIA Memory Stick Reader by Mark Hicks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great but somewhat limited

I bought this card because I have a stash of old memory cards and wanted to use them to play MP3s in my '08 Honda Civic. 8th Generation Civics with Navigation use a PCMCIA card slot for reading media. The good news is that it connects and works really well. The bad news is that it only works really well with older memory sticks of 128MB or less. I was really hoping to use my 2 and 4GB sticks but found they wouldn't work. Luckily I also had a stack of old 128MB memory cards. It's a shame to keep changing them. I could also just use the CDs. I'll probably bite the bullet and get a compact flash card reader and a good CF card for my music, but for now it's working.

Pros
  • Useful for more than intended purpose
Cons
  • Expensive
