The card reader that reads everything
A company called Owltech introduced a memory card reader that can read Sony’s Memory Stick PRO Duo and Mini SD cards. So it is basically a "11 in 1 plus 4" device, as the Japanese ad says. So, just to be complete, these are the accepted formats :
xD-Picture Card ; xD-Picture Card Type M ; Memory Stick PRO ; Memory Stick ; SD Memory Card ; Multimedia Card ; MicroDrive ; CompactFlash Type I ; CompactFlash Type II ; CompactFlash Type II HDD ; SmartMedia (3.3V) ; Memory Stick PRO Duo ; Memory Stick Duo ; RS-MMC and last but not least Mini SD Card.
Fifteen, quite impressive. It’s available in four colours, the dimensions are 101.5 x 92.5 x 25.5mm and it weighs 140g, and it fits in a 3.5" slot, connects via USB 2.0 . The price is unknown at this moment. The device will be released mid-July in Japan.
