A piece of technology goes a long way. This is a USB flash drive is something that has always come in handy. However it is different than your usual usb. It actually serves as a memory card reader. As someone who takes a lot of pictures with a SLR camera I find myself unloading my pictures on various computers. Instead of having to carry my camera and cords and downloading the camera's software just to upload my photos, I can just take the memory card out and place it in this little usb. Convenient and compact- This gadget is a must have by any artist or photographer in need of an easier way to upload their pictures.
