Keychain Memory Card Reader/USB Flash Drive

SD memory USB thumb flash drive from MediaGear. I want one of these...

It's a CHEAP way to turn any memory card (like those used in digital cameras, mp3 players, camcorders, etc.) into a transportable hard drive to store files, pictures, etc. -- or to transfer things from one computer to another.

I have about a half-dozen 8 MB, 16MB and even larger compact flash and secure digital memory cards lying around. Most of them came with various electronic gadgets we've purchased through the years.

For only $9.95, I could turn any unused memory card into a dirt-cheap USB thumb drive!

How it Works...
Simply purchase the Keychain Memory Card Reader made for the particular type of memory card that you have on hand -- either SmartMedia, Memory Stick, CompactFlash, eXtreme Digital, Secure Digital.

They're only $9.95 at MediaGear, no matter which one you choose.

There are even quantity discounts, if you want more than one (say, to use as gifts), or to accommodate different types of memory cards.

What a cool idea! Thanks to Steve Bass for the heads up on this one...
