SanDisk All-in-One memory card reader – New version for North America

SanDisk has shipped the latest edition of its popular SanDisk ImageMate memory card reader, with increased efficiency and faster data transfer rates. The new ImageMate All-In-One has shipped to retailers in North America and is available for purchase at this time.
Faster, smaller and sleeker than it predecessor, and featuring upgraded software applications, the new reader quickly transfer data between a wide range of memory card formats and a host computer. The All-In-One memory card reader can reach speeds of up to 34 megabytes per second (performance may vary depending upon host device) when using a SanDisk Extreme IV 45MB/s CompactFlash card. Sporting a glossy black and metallic silver design, the reader’s tripod base is detachable, creating instant portability.
In addition to the traditional drag-and-drop method, the new SanDisk ImageMate reader streamline the process of transferring digital content by including a transfer button that automatically launches a user-defined application or web site. A single press of the reader’s button will open a designated application such as Photoshop or a Flickr account, and from there the user can transfer or edit photos. SanDisk’s updated ImageMate software bundle enables photographers to utilize the advanced features of both readers, simplifying the most common tasks that they want to perform—transferring photos to a PC, archiving and sharing them.
The ImageMate All-In-One reader supports virtually every industry-standard memory card format currently available, and multiple cards can be inserted simultaneously for card-to-card data transfers. Each card slot features a blue LED light, which indicates data transfer activity. Supported formats include SD, SDHC, miniSDHC, microSDHC, MMC, Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro Duo, xD and CompactFlash, among others. Suggested retail price is $29.99.
