Product Description

From the Manufacturer

As your digital memory cards grow in capacity, you'll need Asante's Gini II Universal Memory Card Reader/Writer to help you speed up transfers of digital pictures, video, music and other data files -- at speeds up to 40x faster than conventional USB 1 memory card readers.

By taking advantage of the new 480 Mbps Hi-Speed USB 2.0 interface, you'll be moving digital multimedia files about as fast as your memory cards can handle. Even if you're using a USB 1.1 (12 Mbps) port, you'll find Gini is faster, more compatible and much more versatile than the serial or USB support included with your digital camera, digital camcorder or PDA. And when you upgrade to USB 2.0, Gini II will be ready for you.

With 4 media slots, Gini II lets you directly move digital files between different memory cards -- eliminating the need for temporary hard disk space. The handy USB cable is long enough to reach the back of your computer and detaches easily when you travel.

Ideal for Creative Professionals
With clients bringing in creative materials on a wide variety of memory cards, Gini II is one stylish, compact device that reads and writes to the 6 most popular memory cards:

• Sony Memory Stick (MS)
• CompactFlash (CF) Type I and II
• IBM Microdrive (MD)
• Smaredia (SM)
• MultiMediaCard (MMC)
• Secure Digital (SD)

Designed for the Future
Everything is plug-and-play. With the built-in drivers for Apple Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows XP/Me, just drag and drop files directly from the memory card; no special applications are required.

Even if you only work with one type of memory card today, Gini II is the perfect invesent you'll need for future digital multimedia devices: digital still cameras, digital camcorders, personal digital assistants (PDA) and more.
