Nice...I didn't know that 2.0 will support USB2...now I am excited.

Man, that sucks...what is this guy talking about then? Man, I guess everyone thinks 2.0 is going to give them everything they ever wanted. I heard it will cook you dinner and wash your dick too.

i think he's talking about the card reader, as you can get a USB2 one or a USB1.1 one, but he's saying get the USB2 card reader cos otherwise, you might as well use the MPC to transfer files to an from your CF card.

yeah, thats what i'm talkin about.... the external card reader! Target has a PNY USB 2.0 multicard reader for $24.99.

I bought a similar PNY reader a few years ago before USB 2.0 was around. I still have it and it works fine, but USB 1.1 is slow as hell. Since I upgraded my motherboard with an Asus that supports USB 2.0 and I have more of a need quicker file tranfers with different cards, it's about time I upgrade this multicard reader as well.
