Hello,
Thanks for that post, I figured 4 slots meant it would only read 4 specific
types of card.
When buying mine, spending the extra $10 seemed like the right thing to do,
and it has saved me on more than one occasion already.

Hi Shannan:
Actually, the card reader Otto was referring to is probably a "twelve in
one" reader. I'm quite confident that the one he's referring to is the one I
have; in fact, I have two of them, one for home and one for the office. This
reader has four slots, and the computer does recognize it as four separate
drives, but each slot can, in turn, accept a variety of card formats,
provided, of course, that the physical dimensions of the card itself are
consistent with a given slot. For example, slot "A" may accept compact flash
type 1 and type 2; slot "B" may accept MMC, XD, etc. (That's just an
example, I do not know whether the physical dimensions of the cards I used
in the above example are equivalent.)
Later!
John
