Ed Krimen at Photobird has reviewed the SanDisk ImageMate 8 in 1 Card Reader and writes:
'If you have a digital camera or other device that uses memory cards, you should seriously consider using the SanDisk ImageMate 8 in 1 USB 2.0 Card Reader/Writer. The SanDisk ImageMate 8 in 1 USB 2.0 Card Reader/Writer allows you to use your memory cards like “digital film”. The SanDisk ImageMate 8 in 1 USB 2.0 Card Reader/Writer is more convenient, less hassle, and easier to use than using the USB cable that came with your digital camera to transfer photos to your computer. In most of our tests, when transferring photos from memory cards, it was also much faster. At about $20, it's practically a steal. If you have more than one digital camera, especially with different memory card types, the SanDisk ImageMate 8 in 1 USB 2.0 Card Reader/Writer is a must-have item. If you use memory cards other than the ones that the SanDisk ImageMate 8 in 1 USB 2.0 Card Reader/Writer supports, consider the SanDisk ImageMate 12 in 1 USB 2.0 Card Reader/Writer, which supports 4 more card types than the 8 in 1 Reader/Writer.'Get the Latest Price on the "Sandisk ImageMate 12-in-1 USB 2.0 Hi-speed Reader ( SDDR-89-A15 )" (SanDisk)
PhotographyBLOG reviews the SanDisk ImageMate Card Reader and writes - 'The SanDisk ImageMate has been sitting on my desk for a couple of months now, largely ignored and unnoticed, simply because it does the job so well. There have been no connection issues, no bad or slow transfers, nothing to cause any problems at all. This is probably the highest compliment that you can pay to a device like the SanDisk ImageMate. I guess you could claim that it is quite stylish, in a silver and black kind of way, and that it is relatively inexpensive, and also that it suits both desktop and laptop use alike. But ultimately performance and reliability are what really count, and the SanDisk ImageMate delivers on both counts.'

I have one and it worked fine until I got an Xd 1GB card; it won't read it. Up to 512MB seems to be the limit unless my unit is defective. I must copy from the camera for the 1GB card. Do either of these models have a maximum card reading capacity? I'm considering getting the 12-n-1 but need to know if it has limitations.
