    Just a word to the wise.
    I bought one of these on ebay for $1.49 w/free shipping a long time ago.
    It is just cheap china product. The usb jack on the card reader broke off quite easily after a week or 2 and it really couldn't read SDHC cards :eek:

    Sorry to hear :(. I never go for that kind of stuff from China off of ebay there's always a catch to them being so cheap. I got a battery for my Canon Vixia Hg20 Comparing $80 to $25 its an awesome deal. But I only get 30 minutes of battery life :(.
