Memory card reader, interesting feature set for the price

[GGD]

I was just wondering what cheap memory card readers cost these days, looking for one with a USB cable, some of the more integrated direct plug in ones are a bit wide and can block other ports. So I checked Fry's and took a quick look at this one.

Seemed reasonable for $9. Supported a few card types as expected, I really only need SD.

The All-in-one card readers are perfect for transferring images, files, music, videos or any types of digital files. The Sunpak All-in-one card readers are the perfect accessory to anyone's computer needs. The super slim design is ultra compact; taking little room on your desk top or carry it in your pocket or purse. Great for uploading pictures,videos, music and files to your computer or from your computer to anyone of the compatible cards. Incorporating the latest technology with USB 2.0 transfer you won't be sitting around waiting for files to upload or download. With five different slots, you can read all the most popular types of memory cards from CF to SD and Memory Stick to xD in a flash!

But then I got to the detailed description

Ho much for the SD reader with full optical zoom?

I'll pass as well. No SmartMedia slot, and I really need anti-shake to get the cards seated.

Is there a cup holder? :coffee:

I was hoping for a combo seat-warmer/whoopee cushion to enhance your comfort and play hilarious practical jokes on your friends...
