SanDisk releases ImageMate memory card readers

SanDisk Corp. (http://www.sandisk.com) has shipped the latest
editions of its SanDisk ImageMate memory card readers, which are
faster, smaller and sleeker than their predecessors, and featurw
upgraded software applications. The ImageMate All-In-One and

detachable.

In addition to the traditional drag and drop method, the new SanDisk
ImageMate readers include a transfer button that automatically
launches a user-defined application or web site. A single press of
the reader’s button will open a designated application such as Adobe
Photoshop or a flickr.com account, and from there the user can
transfer or edit photos.

Each card slot features a blue LED light, which indicates data
transfer activity. Supported formats include SD, SDHC, miniSDHC,
microSDHC, MMC, Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro Duo, xD and
CompactFlash, among others. The suggested retail price for the
All-in-One is US$29.99.

memory card formats, including xD, Memory Stick, SD, SDHC, and MMC.
