Works great - with certain cards - [Posted on 2007-09-10]
I was a big fan of this card when i got it. It sits in my otherwise unused expresscard slot on my Macbook Pro, and I never had to worry about having my USB cable or a USB reader for my digital camera.
Unfortunately, I just bought a new SD Card (SanDisk SDSDH-2048-901 2 GB Ultra II Secure Digital Memory Card (Retail Package)) and it doesn't recognize it. The same card works fine with a USB reader on the same computer.
Horrible [Posted on 2008-04-17]
I wish I could give it zero stars. I works about 5 percent of the time, just enough to make me think I can fix it. I called customer support and they told me it was my computer. I rebuilt my computer and it still fails with a fresh build. I think it will only reliably work with certain brands of SD cards.

I've had two of these cards and both don't work in my MacBook Pro with SanDisk 2Gb SD card. This was a waste of time and money, and I don't know why Apple sells them!! Don't buy this unless you don't care about reliability.
Short life span, no SDHC support [Posted on 2008-05-05]
The device initially worked very well inside both an Apple and an HP laptop, with SD and Memory Stick Pro Duo cards.
Unfortunately after a dozen uses the pins inside the device tend to bend, making it unusable unless you push them back in place with a hairpin.
Oh, an it doesn't read SDHC cards, i.e. almost all SD cards at or above 4GB.
I have a 15.4 Macbook Pro and this only works with 1gb and below [Posted on 2008-05-24]
Only time this actually works is with cards under 1gb. Anything over 1gb and its a bit flaky. Sometimes it will work if you jiggle it a bit. Not worth it and now I am looking for a new one.
