This morning I received a surprise from Newegg, the store from which I
bought the SD card. They have sent me a "free gift." Gee, for a $45.00
purchase that's amazing. The tracking info says the package weighs in at
between 1- and 2-lbs. I wonder what it could be ;-))

Belkin USB 2.0 card reader and a 2G Sandisk Ultra II CF card: about 5
minutes for a complete, full card download.
The differential from USB 2.0 to USB 1.1 is typically about 30-40x in
