Question

Does anybody know of any Compact Flash readers that work under Mac OS X? It's a pain to reboot into OS 9 to get stuff off of my camera or Jornada.

Not that it helps you, but my Sony USB Memory Stick Reader works fine under X. The Stick gets mounted on the desktop and Image Capture launches automaticly when i insert a Memory Stick.

El cheapo Sandisk reader works...

I picked up a little cheap SanDisk USB Compact Flash reader ($29.95, in
a blister pack) at Best Buy, since it has become increasingly
clear that Agfa is still a long way off from providing drivers for
my camera.

I plugged the reader in, then inserted a flash card, and it
mounted the card as a removable disk. No driver installation
required.

I haven't tried it with Image Capture yet, but Finder
copies of images from the card work fine.

Cool.

Sweet! What model number was it? I've got a SDDR-05, and it doesn't seem to work with 10.0.3.
