Hmm, Which Card Reader, Any Suggestions?

[CaBBagE]

There seem to be bloody loads on the market, but on closer inspection many of
them seem to have issues with 2G SD cards, [ok can't use them yet with the
GP2X but I like to be a bit future proof ]. So, can anyone recommend a make
and model of one which will fit the bill? You'll be saving my skin as atm I'm
having to use the card reader in the other half's printer, she'll be charging me
for it next, argh!!!

I bought this cutie :lol:

And It works just fine with my 2GB SD card (USB 2.0 suported ^_^)

that's pretty funky. Most USB 2.0 card readers should support up to 4gb cards though

What is the name of that USB card reader???

Well I can find a few for the Americans here, although the site may ship outside of the US, I'm really not sure.


Here's one for those of you that have a GP32 and are getting a 2x:

For those of you that don't have a GP32 then this one may be for you although it's a little more.

That's what I found, a friend of mine has the second one and from what I've seen and heard about the little reader is that it's great.

I hope that helps someone here.

No no no ^_^
Allthough andejp12's first link showed the right module, but that one was purple :lol:

Why should it matter if you've got a GP32? :huh: Both read SD & MMC but none of them reads SMC as far as I can tell...

Well, just had another quick look and it seems it'll be very "suck it and see" with
2G SD cards, ended up just getting one of these:

I liked the fact that it doesn't need adapters for some of the media as some of
its competitors do. Mind you, they are really much of a muchness and none of
them are going to break the bank

I got the IVAVA one, works perfectly its about 2" square and reads pretty much every type of card

Looks pretty cool. Only got 2 diffrent types of memory cards myself. Using two separate card reader/writers for them and i don't think I'll be useing the other soon ^^ (the SMC reader , no hard feelings GP32 I still love... just not like before...)

I've had 3 card readers and each time I just bought the cheapest one I could find. All 3 worked flawlessly, and still do.

 

[g4m3r]

Should I buy one of those? I already have a SD card reader is my printer (don't know how fast though). I mean it would be useful on trips if I bring my laptop...

 

[OrR]

In your printer? :blink:
