2.0 out of 5 stars Yes, USB 1, NOT 2!, May 3, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: COMPAQ 1CRCR USB 2.0 CompactFlash Card Reader / Writer (Personal Computers)
I believe the write-up is misleading. I'm a geek and looked at this several times and nothing jumped out at me to indicate it was only a USB 1 device. Especially since it says USB 2.0 compatible. That's misleading because "EVERY" USB 1 device is technically USB 2 compliant. That's because in actuality, USB 2.0 supports USB 1! I too wasted my money on this as I already have plenty of USB 1 card readers.

And as an aside, I ordered a Dazzle Zio 2.0 reader and did a side by side test. It took 55 seconds to upload a block of pictures where the Dazzle took less than 5 seconds for the same block! Save your money.

BTW, I gave it two stars since it does work and is small and portable, it's just not USB 2.

1.0 out of 5 stars THIS UNIT IS IS ONLY FOR USB 1.1 NOT USB 2.0!!!, March 23, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: COMPAQ 1CRCR USB 2.0 CompactFlash Card Reader / Writer (Personal Computers)
THE MODEL NUMBER OF THIS UNIT ACTUALLY IS 1CFCR AND IT WORKS ONLY FOR USB 1.1 WHICH IS 6-10 TIMES SLOWER THAN USB 2.0.

JUST WASTED $15 FOR THE SAME THING I ALREADY HAVE.
