Customer Review: Kingston 1 GB Micro SD Card with USB Card Reader
Summary: 5 Stars
This thing is GREAT!
Yes, it's small - the word "micro" in its name is a clue.
Yes, it's tricky to use. Kingston could have included some instructions - well, there are two pictorial hints regarding how to slide the cover off the reader. Also, it's very small.
But hey, it worked great for me and it's so inexpensive that it's hard to believe that anyone could complain about this product.
I bought it to transfer pictures from my cell phone (Alltel Hue by Samsung) to my computers. One of my computers has a Linux operating system. There were no compatibility issues with either Linux or MS Windows. The file transfers were very fast.
It turns out that this combination of micro SD card and card reader can also be used as a Flash Drive with removable memory.
This thing is GREAT!

MicroSD Reader (Black) w/1GB microSD CardWorking seamlessly across device platforms, the Kingston microSD Card Reader stores your entire mobile life on a microSD/microSDHC card, including photos, songs, text messages, video clips, and personal information. Designed with a USB connector and a memory expansion slot that accepts a microSD/microSDHC card, this reader comes equipped with a 1 GB microSD memory card.
This mobile-ready reader eliminates the need to carry additional USB transfer cables and the typical wait for Bluetooth technology's slow file transfers between phones and PCs. When in use, the microSD Card Reader appears as a drive letter (such as E:) and data transfer is as simple as drag and drop.
With a microSD/microSDHC card, the card reader provides the storage capacity for a variety of helpful transfers, and for acquiring content to side load to your phone. For instance, it can back up your contact information when changing phones, move your PC digital music library for use on your phone, and upload a camera phone video to a web site. This card reader even allows you to download new mobile applications on your PC for use on your phone without using network time.
Featuring a basic black design, this reader includes a keychain, so you can hang it from your phone. This Kingston card reader comes backed by a 2-year warranty.
