I don't know - how would I find out?does your memory stick have copy-protection ?Found a card reader - NZ$30 and linux compatible. Probably will buy onegreat. people also try to get rid of used ones,
because readers are integrated in printers, tvs, laptops etc now.
your card reader should not be compatible with your camera,
it will connect the memory card with the computer.
you can find readers using usb1 or usb2 connections.
readers also differ in how many different card formats they support.
standard now is 5-7 different formats all in one,
and they cost up to 30$.
be careful not to buy memory cards with copy protection scheme.
i am out of my league here but sony does play nasty proprietary tricks ...
http://www.google.ch/search?q=memory-card+copy-protection CPRM technology, a copy protection mechanism is embedded in all SD Memory Cards and can be used to protect copyrighted content such as most commercially distributed music and movie files. http://www.dpreview.com/news/9908/99082502newmemory.asp Matsushita Electric, SanDisk and Toshiba Agree to Join Forces to Develop and Promote Next Generation Secure Memory Card http://www.pcworld.com/news/article/0,aid,14694,00.asp The new Secure Digital memory card format continues to gain support from the electronics industry. http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2000/Feb00/MemoryCardPR.asp Microsoft, Matsushita (Panasonic), SanDisk and Toshiba Announce Support for Windows Media Format in New SD Memory Card
as usual the orwelian newspeak media call it support when it's a shafting.
It's like the language Management use at work when it's also shafting!
The sales people tell me the reader works fine on Suse 9.2 which they use, (plug and play). Hopefully the card is okay. I'll only be using it for my photos.
