PNY USB 2 6-in-1 Flash Reader/Writer

Memory cards are now shipped as standard with all manner of products from mobile phones to MP3 players. Rather than installing separate software for each memory card device, a dedicated card reader lets you manage them all with ease.

PNY's latest can read five types of memory card - Compact Flash, MMC, SD, Memory Stick and Smart Media - although it gets the '6' in its name because it can read IBM Microdrives, which plug into the Compact Flash slot.

It plugs into the PC via USB 2 port and Windows XP users don't even need to install a driver. Other Windows users need to use the provided CD. Once installed, Windows displays a new driver letter in My Computer for each type of memory card. There is nothing to suggest that a new card has been inserted, so finding which slot has which letter is a matter of trial and error.

At the suggested retail price, the PNY card reader is nothing special and offers no more or less than any other reader on the market.
