Product Description

Capacity: 2 GB

This mobile-ready bundle eliminates the need to carry additional USB transfer cables and the typical wait for Bluetooth technology slow file transfers between phones and PCs. It also replaces your SD card adapter, since the microSD/microSDHC card fits directly into the reader. When in use, the microSD/microSDHC Card Reader appears as a drive letter (i.e., E:\) and data transfer is as simple as drag and drop. Use the Reader with the included Kingston 2GB microSD, 4GB, 8GB or 16GB microSDHC card to get the storage capacity for a variety of helpful transfers, or acquire content to load to your phone

Good form factor July 2, 2009
By Ryan
Size Name:4 GB|Amazon Verified Purchase
Good form factor - about as small as you can get, handy to use as a 'normal' usb memory stick, or as a card reader since you can swap the microsd out in a second. So far I'm happy with it.

I bought this card specifically because it came with a USB reader. I'm not impressed with the reader at all. It's next to impossible to get the card out of it. Because it's so difficult to remove, I worry that I'm going to end up breaking this tiny, delicate micro card. My thumbnail broke before the card would budge, and I ended up having to remove the string before I could get the card to finally slide out- with great difficulty. The reader also gets burning hot when plugged into the 2.0 USB port.

It *was* super easy to transfer the files from my CPU to the card/reader. Simple drag & drop.

All in all, I think the card will be great, but I'm going to have to replace the reader with something a bit more user friendly. DON'T buy this item for the reader.

Husband loves it April 15, 2011
Size Name:8 GB|Amazon Verified Purchase
It's small enough so I'm not worried about it getting broke when plugged in. My husband carries it everywhere with him. He likes that the card is completely inside and not sticking out like our last reader. He has every song we own on it and still has room, which seems to amaze him :)

The reader is ... ALMOST fine... The problem is that the card inserts right flat against the hole the tether string goes through. Read more

Very small drive, good for key ring use
I liked this since it was very portable and I could put it on my key ring. I didn't care much that it was a micro sdhc, I just wanted a super small 8 gb usb drive. Read more

Good, but can be confusing
It's great for its micro form factor. Just one thing that gets confusing if you're not used to it yet is the missing upper metal shield that usually comes with USB connections... Read more

Works fine
It does what I needed it to do, and does it without any muss or fuss. I mean, it's hardly a super-advanced piece of equipment, and it's small enough that I worry about breaking it... Read more
