Amazon.com Product Description
SimpleTech's CompactFlash Type II adapter lets you enjoy the high-speed read, write, and erase capabilities of CompactFlash cards in any PCMCIA-equipped device. Just slide a CompactFlash card into this adapter and you can use your flash card with myriad laptops, digital cameras, and desktop computers. It's a great way to transfer pictures, data, and other files--you can drag and drop files from the CompactFlash card to a PC, just like a removable hard disk--and it even supports hot swapping. The adapter's low power use extends battery life (when used in a portable device), and SimpleTech warrants the product for one year from the date of purchase. The adapter is compatible with devices that use a standard Type I or II PC Card slot.
Customer Reviews:
WILL NOT WORK WITH TYPE II CF CARDS.......2006-01-13
This adapter only accepts Type I CompactFlash cards, IT WILL NOT WORK with Type II CF cards because they are thicker than a Type I and the slot in this adapter isn't large enough. Amazon's picture appears to be an older version which WOULD accept a Type II CF card, but SimpleTech's current version of model# STI-CFADII is different. CHECK FOR YOURSELF before wasting your time and money: http://www.simpletech.com/estore/index.php?partNumber=STI-CFADII
Gread adaptor, easy to use.......2005-01-18
I use this adaptor to read a 1 GB SimpleTech CF card that I use for an A95 Canon digital camera. This adaptor is metal, and the quality is good. Just insert your card into the adaptor, plug the adaptor into the appropriate slot in your computer, and you are off. The computer should recognize the card automatically, and a new drive will show up for it under My Computer (Win XP).
Make sure that you put the card into the adaptor before inserting it into the slot. If you just put the adaptor in without the card, NOTHING HAPPENS! Just telling you this so you can avoid a scare.
I have two SimpleTech cards, and they are both reliable as is this adaptor. I currently recommend SimpleTech, and will continue to do so until given a reason not to.
Floppy what?????????.......2002-10-19
Scoot over floppy CF is here in full effect. It's the fast way to transfer pictures, data, and other files. I use it to store mucho pictures on my digital camera.
Still using floppy disks? Why? Go CF!!.......2002-05-02
I was at the airport trying to bring up a presentation I was working on... instead of spending time on the presentation, I was muddling through my floppies to find it! A buddy of mine suggested that I use CF cards to store my files on using this PC card adapter. Can you say "NO more Floppies!" Great product!
Compactflash... like a mini hard drive!.......2002-04-29
Ok, I just got a new digital camera and decided to buy another compactflash card from Simpletech and the Flashlink CF card reader, so I can get my pics to my PC fast. Then a friend suggested that I try using my CF cards as mini hard drives! I tell you it works. All I needed was the Simpletech PC card adapter and it like using a small floppy with alot more storage space!! Awesome!!

compact flash card adaptor for laptop.......2007-02-15
I think the product name is pretty applicable. Simple (Tech) is right! Just plug in the cf card and plug into a PC card slot and it works. No drivers necessary (under XP).
Very inexpensive, too!
Real plug and play reader.......2004-02-22
This real plug and play compact flash card reader is a must for every laptop owner. Any laptop has a PCMCIA slot, and every laptop nowadays comes with a modem , LAN , built in, so you use the PCMCIA slot for nothing, but the reader.
I usually keeps it plugged in the laptop, and take a backup for my critical files on it. With a 512 MB card, it really takes a lot, and provides me with peace of mind with an online , reliable and fast backup.
With technology, the storage capacity doubles every 12 months , and the MB/$ drops by half every 9 month. Soon, you will be able to buy a 10 GB compact flash card for the price of 512 MB nowadays. And, still , you will use the same reader !!
Gets the job done.......2003-05-11
It's your basic compact flash/PCMCIA adapter card. Great for laptops when all you want to do is transfer digital pictures from your compact flash to your laptop.
Too bad this an Office Depot product that you can't pick up in the store. The shipping alone pretty much kills this product as a good deal.

Customer Reviews:
Not worth it.......2007-03-04
This card reader isn't any faster or more convenient than downloading directly with my digital camera, and was a lot less reliable. We bought a pcmcia reader and are much more satisfied with it.
A sinch to use!.......2003-11-20
This product is great. I was up and running in minutes.
I bought it because my Digital Camera refused to communicate with my pc. I just followed the included instructions and within minutes all of my pictures were downloaded.
A poor implementation of Plug N' Play.......2003-09-15
This device should configure a lot easier than it does. I'm a programmer with many years of experience configuring hardware. I found this one annoying to set up.
You may have to download new drivers for this device from the simpletech website. Once you get the correct version of the drivers, and install it following the instructions EXACTLY (the device cannot be plugged in while loading the software) it eventually works ok.
Note that there are two DIFFERENT part numbers for this device. 90000-40388-001 and 90000-40388-002. The 001 version does not support some platforms that the 002 version does. I recieved the 001 and have had no end of difficulty with it.
If I had it to do over again, I would spend a bit more, and get a device from another company that supported more than two media types.
Excellent Storage Device!.......2003-07-22
Primarily I bought this item 'cause I needed to transfer the pictures from my digital Olympus D-340R camera to my notebook. My notebook doesn't have a serial port, which is the one used to transfer the pictures, and I needed a fast, reliable, easy to use and non-battery device. And I found this excellent device, although you'll think that its plastic package is to delicate.
I recommend you to buy this excellent device, but be aware that if you are going to use it on a Windows 98 based PC, you should download the drivers for Windows 98...It's an ideal plug and play device for Windows XP!!
Works sometimes.......2003-05-07
From what I understand of these types of hardware, they are created in batch by varying hardware component manufacturers and the resold to vendors (e.g. Simpletech) who combine them into the nice products we buy for distribution.
Unfortunately SimpleTech doesn't quite get things right. The driver installation for this product went smoothly on Windows XP. It was a matter of clicking the mouse a few times, a reboot, and plugging in the device into a USB slot.
However, what followed afterwards and for succeeding attempts at getting the thing to be recognized by your PC would be what I call my own form of digital gambling. Some days the device works when I plug it in, and some days it doesn't. The odds are usually not in my favor.
I would have much preferred a more expensive item that worked all the time.

Customer Reviews:
Transfer your picture without problems.......2006-05-09
I bought this when I got my first digital camera. I found it very easy to use this to transfer pictures from the CF memory card instead of using the Canon software to transfer the pictures. I have also used this when I travel to transfer pictures to my laptop and to PC's at internet cafes. I think this was one of my best buys ever...it was cheap, I have used is a lot and it is easy to use :-)
Another card that's not compatible..........2004-05-06
This reader does not work with my PNY 128mb card on Windows 2000.
Doesn't work with all cards..........2004-04-13
This reader works with my SanDisk 128mb card, but does not work with my newer Lexar Media 256mb 12x card. Go figure.
versatile.......2004-01-19
This inexpensive reader has worked great on many computers and provides a great way to transfer digital pictures to various computers without the need to hook up my camera (avoids hassels of carrying wires and possibly the programs to install). Can't beat it!
Works in Linux!.......2004-01-08
I buyed the Reader because my Minolta Dimage S414 camera currently does not have Linux support. :-(
I use the reader with Linux Fedora Core 1 and it is fast and very easy to connect. The USB cable included is good because allow to connect the reader in the vertical USB port of my notebook.

Great Combo Kit.......2002-10-22
If you own a digital camera and take a lot of pictures and value your own time, then get this. With SimpleTech's 128MB Compact Flash card and reader I'm able to get the most out of my Canon Powershot G2. I can store 200 photos then download them incredibly fast to my PC without wasting my camera battery life or mine.
Everything you need for your digital camera!.......2002-05-02
Nothing is more waste of time that waiting for you images to download from the digital camera to your computer. I needed an extra CF card and stumbled on this package that also comes with the reader... now I can get images from the card to computer in a flash! Great stuff!
Convenient and easy to use!.......2002-03-12
I needed a way to get my images from my digital camera to my computer faster, the serial connections are too slow. I couldn't believe how fast I was able to down load all my images from the compact flash card. My computer sees the FlashLind just like another hard drive, and with Win2000, installation was a cinch. If you take alot of pictures with your digital camera, you're going to want to get one of these!

Customer Reviews:
Great for what it is.......2006-05-11
Great, small camera. The picture come out pretty good actually. It looks good enough for web pics and picture sharing. Good for a small camera on the go because it is solid and small. This is a camera you can actually put in your pocket. Some cameras are small, but not this solid. They need an updated version that is 3+ MP and more memory.
Could be alot better.......2005-10-14
I had this camera over a year and i hate it. You have to hold it exactly still for 3-4 seconds and if you move it, it will mess the picture up. you can't take any decent pictures inside and when you take them outside.
If your taking pictures of nature or art or anything that don't have motion and isn't a person then buy it. others wise save your money.
one thing I loved about this camera is that it doesn't take batteries and you can charge it up by putting the usb port into your pc.
perfect camera for certain needs.......2005-08-30
if this is going to be the only camera you have, i'd say buy something better. if you already have a nicer manual/digital camera and just want something to play around with, this camera is perfect. i purchased it with the intended use of something small that i would take anywhere, not have to worry about it getting banged up, and be able to take pictures namely at parties or out with friends.
Great Features
- the exterior casing is strong/durable
- the size, fits in your pocket
- the flash works well enough indoors to take pictures of friends, etc
- very fast shot time, less than 3 seconds
- no additional batteries needed, battery life is fairly long
- can take either 40 medium size shots or 150 small, no need to worry about extra memory cards
- software couldn't be easier
don't buy this camera if:
- you want an lcd screen to view pictures
- you want to print the pictures
- if you are going to use it for family vacations, or any trips where you'd want really quality pictures, this is more of a normal day to day camera
the camera is perfect for college students!
Decent pocket camera for the price.......2005-08-12
I've been using my 130 for well over a year now. Yes, the picture quality isn't the best. It needs to be held very steady, and taking pictures indoors is hit or miss (usually miss) It is quite handy though, and easy to always have around. I haven't found a better slim pocket camera for under $200.
The metal case especially is great, as it means this camera can live with keys and other pocket items that could seriously damage a lesser armored camera.
One can't fault the lack of a screeen for a camera this inexpensive, and the built-in battery is easily enough that you'll almost never have to worry about charging the camera (through the USB connector) leave it plugged in overnight once a month, and you're good to go.
Small, durable, inexpensive -- great to stuff in a pocket.......2005-01-04
I've owned a Pocket Digital 130 for several months now and paid less than $60. For that price you can't beat it. The unit has a rugged steel case and I've yet to run into a problem with the internal battery running low. The camera holds about 45 photos at 1.3 MP.
For outside photos it works great. Under good fluorescent lighting it is adequate. On the negative side, the flash isn't powerful enough to compensate for poor or incandescent lighting and the viewfinder could use some markings to help frame shots.
It's not comparable to a $300 camera, but then it isn't meant to be. It's small, rugged and dependable, and for the going price it's a steal.
Addendum: Since leaving the above review, I've used Picasa 2 to salvage a number of pictures taken in poor light that I thought were hopeless. I highly recommend using it in place of Logitech's bundled software. Picasa is available at no charge from Google.
