Why don't people just use a MicroSD card reader and keep it with them?

That's pretty cool, but one of my main reasons for even owning a PPC/Phone is to carry around less stuff. Even small stuff...

Well, that mini-reader is actually smaller than carrying around a USB cable which you would need to use anyways...

Of course your main PC (activesync) probably has a USB sync cable already attached but this is great for connecting to ANY PC.

Great adapter, but I use Card Export since I have a HTC Touch. (3.08 works great!) Removing the battery cover every time I want to get to the microSD would not be any fun!

I'm fairly sure WM5torage works for the Touch as well. And it is freeware. If you haven't already paid the license for Card Export you might want to check it out.

Looks like version 3.10 is out.

Working well for me. The only issue I see is that it doesn't seem to report the total card capacity correctly (running a 6gb SDHC). It was this way in the last debug version I tested as well. I mentioned it, but I guess it is still not fixed. Not that it really matters.

Side note: I'll have to play with it a little more, but it doesn't seem to allow the old trial version + WM5torage *workaround* anymore. We were all going to buy it anyway though right? Good.
