I used this Christmas Day, man, if life could be so easy. In a matter of a minute all my photos were downloaded to my computer. I would recommend this product for not only ease of use but, also flexibility.

Update:
It does not read the newer SDHC SD card that are like 4gb.
Previous:
My card reader is usually very close to my monitor, since I do take a few pictures and down them quite often. So the aluminum top plate makes it a one of the best looking card reader out there. It is more compact and smaller then my last Belkin card reader that still works, that couldn't read anything over 1 GB of memory. Sliding my various cards into this device is a lot smoother then on the Belkin reader. A little yellow light is always on. Come with some software that name your drive letter that I didn't install.
Performance
This USB2 is noticeably faster then the Belkin card reader, which is also USB2. I got a 512mb, 1 GB, and 2 GB SD cards and one memory stick and they all worked fine. It uploaded my 2GB SanDisk Ultra II to computer at an average of 6.01mb a second and drops to 4.8mb per second the other way around. On my 1GB generic brand, it upload speed is 5.5mb per second based on Vista info screen.
A little pricey, but it looks formal on my desktop with a solid construction and worth it.

I bought this Sony reader because it seems a little better constructed than all the no-name brands out there. This one reads a few more types of memory cards than some of the others. I wanted one that did CF cards.. Many do not anymore. I use the reader on a iMac and it seems to read / write fast. I have no regrets about this purchase. It looks good enough where I just leave it hooked up all the time too.

Costs $10 less at CompUSA right now. But ... no matter because this reader ... is ...
NOT
... recognized on a Macbook Pro 2.2 running Tiger 10.4.10. Also could not get it to work on Parallels 3 using Windows XP on the same computer. At least under parallels the LED flashes, but the virtual drives for each slot only loaded after unplugging the USB cable! To get it to work you will need to *trick* it into working.
Stay away Maczealots. Sony is too smart to be compatible. Also, bet it won't mount under Ubuntu. Can't test until back from vacation.
 High build quality, slightly higher price August 12, 2007

This Sony reader feels nice compared to non-brand name memory card readers because of its aluminum construction. For Sony camera users, it snugly reads Memory Stick Duos and MS Pro Duos without using an adapter. That is one big plus. I would have given the product 5 stars except the price is higher than other products who have the same read features.
