Now, I’m not sure who really needs support for 80 different storage mediums, but if you are, here’s your solution. iMONO’s 80-in-1 card reader not only supports like… every memory card known to man, but also has the ability to connect 3 other USB devices. Heck, if you wanted, you could buy a whole slue of these things and daisey chain them for a ridiculous amount of memory cards. It wouldn’t be all that expensive either since they’re cheap as dirt.
