i just searched yahoo/google to see the cheapest card readers, seems they can be had for 15-20 dollars for a pretty decent one that should be able to draw its power off of the OTG drive and also doesnt need a PC to operate! just look around!

FYI, the 40 gig can be had for a penny more:

what kind of reader is everyone gonna get ive been thinking of a cheapy at b and h photo/video personally, they have a couple of decent, simple ones for 15-20 bucks!

I've already got one around here so no need to buy another.  I'm still trying to decide if I really need the OTG drive, since I'll probably never tape a festival.

No no, I already have a reader.   Just trying to decide if I really want an OTG drive or if I should just bring along my laptop when necessary...

what reader do you recomend and how does it draw its power? from the otg drive, right?

and is everything stand-alone, meaning a PC/Mac isnt necessary

[John Kelly]

Not sure which one it is, I got it a loooooong time ago.  All readers draw power over USB, so they should all work with the OTG drives I would think.

As for if they're standalone, that's a big negative.  They all need something to connect to, either a computer (PC or Mac, doesn't matter) or something like an OTG drive.

thanks john!

Do y'all think it would be possible to just dump right from the flashtrack to the OTG or would you need a seperate cf reader ?

just make sure the reader is a newer one... i have 1 reader that is old - it was made when 256 CF cards were the biggest available... it cannot handle 512 MB cards.  new readers can be had on ebay for 10-15 bucks.

technological progress... gotta love it.

there was a guy on NPR a few months back saying that you won't be able to buy an independent cheap digi-cam without it being in a phone and / or a phone without MP3 player capabilities in a few years.
