5 out of 5 stars Works great!   March 24, 2008
Shane Williams
I used this to transfer files from my work computer to my Motorola Q smartphone. It works perfect. Just slide the Mini SD card into the reader and insert it into the USB port and you can click and drag your files to load them on the card. It's a really quick and easy way to tranfer files without syncing my phone to a computer.


5 out of 5 stars very versatile product   September 17, 2007
Jong Am Park (Los Angeles, CA USA)
The quality for this IOGear memory card reader is very good. It doesn't look cheap.
Also, it provides very flexible option for my memory needs, because it can accept miniSD flash memory. If you buy a microSD memory with SD/miniSD catridge, this can be used with any digital device which requires different size of SD memory.



4 out of 5 stars Slick microSD reader !   January 23, 2007

This is the only USB reader that the microSD card fits inside of and closes. Most others have the card sticking out the side like a piece of toast.

It does seem to take quite a bit longer to write to then it does to read. Although my other microSD toaster reader is the same way.
My Zaurus has SD my cell has miniSD, so I got an miniSD-SD adapter for the Zaurus and this for the Computer. Now it is easy to move data between all three devices. A real lifesaver. And it looks just like a normal USB memory drive. Not a small toaster.

Only one real drawback that I see.... No way to attach a lanyard or keychain. seriously!

Im giving a 4 rather then a 5 because of the slower writes and the lack of any way to attach a lanyard/keychain.

Overall a nice reader/writer for moving data around between devices and your laptop/computer. Does not replace a nice fast USB drive, mainly because of the slower writes.
