Hi Doug!
I use the Epson P-2000. It does not support .dng files, so it will
not display the photos... but it does hold and return .dng files just
fine. It will download about a dozen full 2gb cards on a charge, but
then must be recharges on 110V. (A 12v battery and a small inverter
should do it!)
Alternatives...
A CD burner, coming from
http://www.digitalcamerainfo.com/content/Sony-Delivers-Portable-CD-Burner-Photo-Vault-Targets-Mobile-Photographers.htm
Should be good. Not yet available.
I have seen the Apacer CD burner, and it works quite well. Not sure
is it supports .dng but the one I saw did well with .CR2
files. Advantage is if travelling in 3rd world countries, you can
make 2 copies - keep one, mail the other. Chances are, you will not
[a] be robbed and [b] lose the other in the mail, so when you get
home you should see at least one CD containing your photos.
Apacer makes their 200 CD burner and 300 DVD/CD burners. Both
portable. Both need to be recharged w/110V. (Again, a 12v battery +
small inverter should do.)

Hope this helps!
Cheers!
