I have one, and though i've never actually needed to use it for pictures, i have tested it. The only issue i had was that i wont copy over the RAW images, only jpeg's. The reason i wanted one was so that i could shoot RAW and offload the images to it. oh well. I get over 250 pictures on a 512 card, so i've never had a reason to use it so far.
