In looking at the Kodak series, they seem to support the PCMCIA-ATA standard. So, instead of communicating directly with the camera, I was thinking about purchasing a reader from SanDisk: http://www.sandisk.com/cons/imagemate-USB.htm referenced from: http://www.kodak.com/US/en/digital/accessories/memory/usbReader.shtml Basically, it appears to be a combination of PCMCIA-ATA support melded together with USB. Does anyone have any experience with this unit? Am I correct that with USB support coming onboard in -current that it would be feasible to get a driver working? Thanks!
