Doesn't work with SDHC cards? 
2008-08-25
I bought this reader back in 2004 or early 2005. It's been really good to me, I can't complain. However, we just bought a new camera that can use SDHC cards, and my trusty Lexar card reader won't read them.
very happy

I have a couple of these readers (home and office) and have been very satisfied with how they work. It reads most kinds of cards though I only use SD media. It is fairly compact and a good value for the money. Much faster downloads than depending on the camera USB cable. I would recommend this.
Hack - open the case

Lexar USB2.0 reader went from erratic to consistently dead. Playing with the software was annoying, it seems to crash Windows Explorer or Computer management very easily. Open the case (remove screw under label, pry open plastic), press on some parts, worked. Suspect L1 very near the USB connector. Anyway it seems to work pretty well without the case.

I've had this for 1.5 years, use it very often, and love it. Pictures transfer fast and make it very convenient. Great product. Highly recomended.

With all of the different types of memory cards available today, the Multi-Card Reader is the most versatile solution for transferring files to your computer. You are able to transfer files from devices such as digital cameras, video camcorders, MP3 players and even personal digital assistants (PDAs). Its compact size and USB connectivity make it convenient to take it with you wherever you go.
PIECE OF CRAP STOPPED WORKING THE SAME DAY 2006-03-08
I got this Item and it worked for about 4 hours, then stopped working, I tried the reader in 2 different computers nothing... I contacted Lexar customer support and they couldn't help me, save your money and buy something else.

Waste of time 2006-02-25
I used this reader for a week before it stopped working. It worked OK for the week that it worked at all. It would not read xD cards though. It did not detect that a card was inserted at all. I tried inserting the card fully, partially and even tried jiggling it a little. It seemed like the contacts on the card were touching the contacts on the reader but it would not recognize that a card was inserted. It did, however, work with my compact flash card. Then, inexplicably, it stopped functioning entirely. I unplugged it and plugged it back in and scanned for hardware changes in Device Manager but the card was dead. I tried plugging it into another computer and it was not detected at all. Lexar support left a lot to be desired. I explained the problem in detail and the response I got was a generic "Try restarting the computer, etc, etc." Then, they wanted me to pay for shipping to RMA their defective merchandise. I sent it back to Amazon instead and got my money back. I'm willing to assume that I just got a lemon, but the piss poor tech support convinced me to get a refund rather than a replacement.
Excellent and portable memory card reader 2006-02-17
I love the design and the size of this memory card reader. Very portable and works great. Reads pretty much all memory cards that are out there on the market at the moment. Would recommend it and would buy it again.
