The Kingston 100X CF Ultimate 2GB card has a sustained write speed rated at "100x", 13MB/s read, 13MB/s write, which is two times as fast as Kingston's 50X card that offers 7.5MB/s performance. Beyond that, it's square and thin. What else do you need to know? Exactly...
The 15-in-1 Flash Reader on the other hand is a tiny little device and it's amazing that so many different memory formats can be read in such a small form factor. The socket connector pins alone take up most of the real estate inside the unit itself. The 15-in-1's apperance is minimalistic, sleek and stylish, just the way we like it.
