I have a Diamond so unfortunately I don't have a storage card, my one pet peeve of this phone.

jhw, it works like a charm. By far the best of the bunch but thanks to everyone else for the suggestions. My main motivation for this is two fold. One is so I watch my movies at work off of my phone so I don't have to tote a flash drive and second so I can play with new cabs at work. My PC there is locked down tighter than Fort Knox! Firefox portable has been a Godsend.

Glad to have helped ^_^
Just be aware most phones only have a usb 1.1 interface, so it may be slower than an actual usb 2.0 card reader.
