I have tried and thrown away a Sandisk CF usb reader and the Microtech usb SM and CF reader. Sandisk you must click Sandisk's tray icon to remove the CF card Microtech blew out Win2K with a funky driver, got it to work with a driver from the manufacturer SCM. Finally just got tired of it. bought 3 delkins -- great product.

Strengths: Simple to use. Reads Type I and II CompactFlash card. Great for backups of files or pictures. Small footprint.
Weakness: An LED to show access activity would be nice addition.
I have a 16Mb CF card which was of limited use since it only held a few digital pictures. I have used this card and the Reader to hold files for helping people tune up their PCs. The Reader can be used to download photos without tying up the camera or draining the batteries. It should only become more useful as the CF cards increase in capacity and decrease in price.
