The card reader is this one:
http://www.sandisk.com/Products/ProductInfo.aspx?ID=1151
Which states:
The ImageMate 5-in-1 Reader/Writer accepts
the following memory types:
1. SD™ Card
2. MultiMediaCard™
3. Memory Stick™
4. Memory Stick PRO™
5. xD™
What I *don't* see is that it accepts the
Memory Stick "Pro Duo", which is what
I have. Sales people around
town are telling me there's no problem,
and that the "adapter" makes it work.
But I've got a feeling it's the wrong
thing to do.
My plan, therefore, is to hold off and order
one that specifically states it accepts the
Memory Stick Pro Duo.
- However, I thought someone in this NG might
post that they use the combination routinely
with no ill effects.
