I was just thinking the same thing... I can use it for my SD card and Micro SD, as well, as my ProDuo, I was wondering if the other side has CF slot or not? Doesn't say, just says many more, but I would think that CF would be mentioned if it did it.

Seems like a good deal.
I wonder if it can read a 32Gb SDHC... i'll prob just do an ISPU and make sure I can return it if it doesn't work...

devices with similar or often identical functionality can be ordered from dealextreme for less money. I'd like to find one of these with CF slots, but they're hard to find.

More like 2-in-1. SD and MS. I don't think it even supports micro SD, which OP wanted.
I hate it when retailers and manufacturers try to mislead uneducated customers like this. Expect a lot of returns. Go with ISPU - that way shipping should be on their $.

except that it will take minimum 6 weeks to process the order and ship. and once you receive it, it might not work. ha

the difference with CC is that i will get it sooner - the quality is no different. Do you need this card reader in a rush?

I went to get it today and saw it for $29.99 and told the girl I saw it on the website for $9.99. She scanned it and said nope its $29.99 so I didn't want to bother with it and left.
Also I don't think you can use SPC card since it's $29.99 instore.

Just order it on ebay for cheaper and it gets delivered faster. Don't order from deal extreme.

There is 3-5 day pick up, and then one hour in store pickup. It will still ask you for a credit card #, because you are doing the purchase online, you just go in the store to pick it up (and sign a receipt)
if the store doesn't have stock, I believe it will automatically go to the 3-5 day in store shipping.

SPC can be used on regular and sale priced items. The daily circuit breaker is an online only thing, so it wouldn't be in store... up until about 2 days ago, stores can now price match the website (as long as it's not a web-only deal, or a different stock number) so the store could have price matched the circuit breaker deal, but you would have to tell them to price match the site, since I rarely know what the daily deal is, they might not have it in their head the manually change the price of something, since it doesn't popup in the system automatically.
It's also new about price matching the circuit breakers, so they might not have known, but you can tell them to read their portal emails.. ;)

Received mine today from store. Nice product. Yes, it reads micro sd & sdhc. Infact it has a separate micro sd slot. A bonus, reads SIM cards too and comes with a CD with some sort of SIM editor software as well. Also comes with memory card holder/storage and a nice strap.
Thanks OP.
