Ok, thanks. I'm still hoping for a recommendation on an SD reader that will be good for my MacBook Pro.
How old is your MBP? Isn't there one built in? All recent MBP's have an SD Card slot on the left hand panel just next to the headphone socket.
It is three years old, bought January 2009 so no it doesn't have an SD Card slot.
There is very little difference between external USB card readers except in their ability to read very high-capacity cards. If you buy one that says it can read SDXC cards, you should have no trouble with any lower-capacity card. Many readers are generic, and are sold under various brand names.
There are SD readers that fit into your computer's Expresscard 34 slot, but they are much more expensive than USB readers.
Thanks very much, that is a real help.
