Can-shaped card reader+ 3-port Hub

Posted on February 3, 2012 by admin| Leave a comment

I’m still no hight with Kingston’s thumb-sized MobileLite 9-in-1 card reader and this new can shaped memory card reader and USB hub doesn’t seems impressive. This new device uses only one USB port on your computer and offers three ports in return by using one. It features: � Canned design � Support SD, XD, MS, Mini SD, � T-flash/Micro SD (*WITHOUT ADAPTER) � Fully support USB 2.0 � Plug and play � Power LED indicator � Small and portable � Size: 59x59x49mm � Weight: 60g System Requirements: �Windows 98/98SE/ME/2000/XP I think this Can Card Reader + USB Hub is a bit expensive in terms of price and as my system also runs on Windows Vista, I think I will rather go for Kingston’s MobileLite 9-in-1 card reader for only $ 8.99 instead of getting this can like device for $17.
