" Today we’re looking at a rather rarely-seen-reviewed and inexpensive computer peripheral—the “card” reader. In terms of “cards”, it is referring to the CompactFlash/Smart Media/Secure Digital/Microdrive/xD-picture/Memory Stick type of card products used today in the extremely popular market of portable media devices. However small it may be, I realized recently (in a bit of frustration) that your card reader’s performance is something that no matter what portable media device you have, is important."
