1.0 out of 5 stars product does not work as advertised, August 9, 2005

This review is from: Viking InterWorks IntelliFlash USB 2.0 12 in 1 MultiFlash Reader (FL12IN1READ/U) (Personal Computers)

The product will not work for the memory stick pro products with magic gate technology. When the vendor was asked about this, they replied that it was not tried on this product. Later they informed me that it would work on memory stick pro cards that have magic gate technology, which I replied where do I purchase these, since both scandisk and sony only sell memory stick pro cards with magic gate built into them. I specifically bought this item to use with the memory stick pro cards so I did not have to use the camera to extract the images. For me the product is useless.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works for me..., August 30, 2005

I use this for just about everything; transferring data between PDA SD memory cards; pulling photos from my camera's CF card. This drive just works. It is small enough that I have travel with it occassionaly, and the only side effect has been that the rubber foot has fallen off from traveling inside my laptop brief bag. I've thought highly enough of it that I bought one for my brother when he needed a card reader.

I bought one of these four or five years ago and it is the most fantastic thing. It works on every computer that me or my friends use (both Mac and Window machines). Now I am buying a second one so I can leave one in two places. The best thing is it requires no software and no electricitiy so it is just plug and play. I love it.
