If your a PC user, chances are you own
some type of device that uses
digital media. Whether it's a digital camera, MP3 player, Pocket PC or even a
cell phone, you are likely using flash media and require an easy and efficient
way of transferring data over to your desktop PC. You may even have a few
devices that use different types of flash media and require a universal device

My
experience with PQI Corporation is that they do include generous extras with
their products. The PQI 6-in1 reader comes with a great leather pouch,
USB extension cable, user's manual and a driver CD.

This
reader is very nice and compact. The attached USB cable tucks away
nicely in one side of the unit. You have two LED's on the top part
of the reader, one for power (green) and one that serves as an activity LED
(red). On the other end, you
have your card slots supporting Compact Flash, Mult-Media, Secure Digital,
Smart Media, Memory Stick and even Micro Drives. I would also like to
note that this reader supports the second generation Memory Stick Pro cards as
well.
