| | | This card and reader adds up to an ultra-portable and convenient bundle that gives you an easy way to move photos, video clips, music and other files from mobile phone to PC or PC to mobile phone. The reader is designed with a
USB connector and a memory expansion slot that accepts a microSD/microSDHC card. Combine it with a microSD/microSDHC card and you’ve got the best mobile gear to go with your phone.
This mobile-ready bundle eliminates the need to carry additional USB transfer cables and the typical wait for Bluetooth® technology slow file transfers between phones and PCs. It also replaces your SD card adapter, since the
microSD/microSDHC card fits directly into the reader. When in use, the microSD/microSDHC Card Reader appears as a drive letter (i.e., E:\) and data transfer is as simple as drag and drop. Use the Reader with the included Kingston® 1GB
or 2GB microSD or 4GB microSDHC card to get the storage capacity for a variety of helpful transfers, or acquire content to side load to your phone, including:
Backing up your friends’, relatives’ or business contact information when you change phones
Moving the digital music library stored on your PC for use on your phone
Transferring a video captured on your camera phone to upload to the web without using additional network minutes
Downloading new mobile applications on your PC for use on your phone without using network time.
The bundles are backed by a two-year warranty on the
reader, a lifetime warranty on the microSD/microSDHC card, and Kingston’s legendary service and support. The bundles are available in either a stylish red reader with 2GB microSD
or a black color reader combined with a 1GB microSD card or 4GB microSDHC card. And with the included keychain, you can hang it from your phone for the convenient solution you need to complement your mobile lifestyle.
Store your entire mobile life — photos, songs, text messages, video clips, personal information — on your Kingston microSD/microSDHC card, then work with it across device platforms seamlessly with the microSD/microSDHC Card
Reader bundle.

Works great! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Tiny, Good performance, good compatability Wednesday, May 20, 2009 Jon O from Kalamazoo
Works great. It is fast, though not the fastest available. Works in my digital camera (with using an adapter). Works in my laptops, in any USB compatible computer. Great for having an extremely portable and versatile memory card. Was this review helpful?

Great device. Small, easy to carry. I've shown it to
a number of people, tech savvy and not. Everyone wants
one. I actually bought a bunch to give as gifts. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Great value combo package Monday, April 13, 2009 A Customer from Boston, MA
This product is perfect for upgrading your picture phone or other portable device with MicroSD storage. The 4GB media is abundant, and the complimentary USB adapter allows you to connect to any computer without needing a MicroSD reader or carry an SD adapter. Was this review helpful?
4 of 5 Just what I was looking for Saturday, April 11, 2009 Pete from New Albany, IN
It will read SDHC where a lot of older computers, like mine, won't read the HC (High Capacity) type cards. Plug 'n play. Be forewarned that if you opt for the free shipping, it may take up to two weeks to get to your door, like mine. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 This is a great product Monday, March 16, 2009 Purwit'Z from East Brunswick, NJ
I purchased this for my LG VENUS, I have several micro sdhc cards and this reader allows me to plug the cards in directly to the computer without needing messy hard to find device cords. Comes with a 4 gig card. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Kingston USB microSD/microSDHC Reader with 4GB mi Monday, March 16, 2009 Jay from Phoenix, Az.
This is a great product. I purchased this for my Blackberry Storm. The usb drive is a little small. But once you get use to it, it's no problem at all. Put it on your key chain & your good to go Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 very convenient! Monday, January 12, 2009 toni from dallas, tx
i use the microSD for my phone and bought a second for my boyfriend because the usb drive is SO handy. i've tried using the SD card adaptor for my micro cards and it is nothing but a hassle. great value for this product! definitely recommend it. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 Works like a champ Tuesday, December 02, 2008 A Customer from Tucson
I got this for my Nokia N95-1. Worked like a champ.
Pro- Works as advertised
Cons- The reader is so small, it is hard to get out of the USB port. The lanyard is like a sewing thread and I am afraid to use it to pull on the reader. At this price you can't go wrong. Free Shipping from Buy.com was icing on the cake. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Awesome MicroSD Card Tuesday, December 02, 2008 A Customer from Erie, CO
It works perfectly and so does the USB adapter. I love it and will continue to do business with Buy.com. You just can't beat the quality and the prices. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 great product Monday, December 01, 2008 Mike S. from East Meadow NY
ultra-portable and convenient .great price and free shipping too. It took a bit longer than the usual time (5 days) to delivery. It took (10 days) but I was not in a rush for it so that was fine. Definitely a bargain! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Don't miss it Monday, December 01, 2008 C. J. from Kosciusko, MS

We are very happy with the product. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Makes a great keychain Monday, November 24, 2008 A Customer from NLV, NV
I bought this to replace the bulky flash drive I had on my keys before. Very handy storage that goes with me everywhere. Fast enough for my needs. Pretty fast shipping considering it's free. Was this review helpful?
3 of 5 Almost there Monday, November 24, 2008 A Customer from Brooklyn, NY
The micro SD card reader is very small and fits in the tiniest pocket without difficulty. The problem is, it can be difficult to pull out of the USB port. I used the little key-chain strap to yank it out, but after a few weeks, it broke the plastic loop. Eventually I lost the slip cover as well. It would have been better had they included an SD adapter and a USB-SDHC Reader. Otherwise I am always happy with Kingston product quality. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Yes it is small Monday, November 24, 2008 Will from Annapolis MD
Did you look at the picture? It's about twice the size of a USB plug. As pictured. Very cool. Buy this! We need more of this kind of technology delivery. Keep it safe so you don't lose it.
Excellent purchase even at $20 but for that can we get an 8 GB SD Card? Or are the prices not down enough on that yet. I'll get one of those separately when it comes up for a bargain. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Excellent product Saturday, November 22, 2008 A Customer from Princeton NJ
Great price, good capacity and resonable speed for a given price.
The USB attachment simply turns the sd card into a flash drive. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 excellent buy w/free shiping Saturday, November 22, 2008 A Customer from NW Iowa
I have several micro sdhc cards and this reader allows me to plug the cards in directly to the computer without needing messy hard to find device cords. Comes with a 4 gig card. Nice!

5 of 5 KINGSTON MICRO FLASH DRIVE Friday, November 21, 2008 Tom Royeton from Sacramento, California
After receiving the five flash drives ordered I opened one (the others are for gifts) and tested it's overall operation and performance. It is quite simple to insert the micro SD memory module into the USB body of the drive and prepare for use. The slide-out feature is well designed so as to allow the attached mini-lanyard to be used to slide the working portion of the drive out of the protective cover for use. The drive worked as advertised then I was able to disconnect the drive from my computer and slide it back into the protective cover again by use of the lanyard. I find no way to improve on the design except possibly to have the main body snap into the protective cover rather than depend on friction and the lanyard to keep them together.
All in all, a great product!! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 working great Friday, November 21, 2008 A Customer from san diego, ca
worked fine on my z6tv Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Great price and value Thursday, November 20, 2008 A Customer from Fenton, MO
This works great. It was brand new in the package. The usb adaptor makes this easy to use on any computer so you can put pictures or songs on the card and put into phone. Great. Was this review helpful?
4 of 5 where is it??? Thursday, November 20, 2008 A Customer from Little Rock, AR
yup, already 'lost' it 4-5 times... so small (in size, not in capacity), that i had to spend a lot of time searching for it in my book shelf. Will add it to my key chain :)
pros: micro SD, compatible with many of the cell phones and laptops. if you dont have a card reader on your laptop, use the USB reader! my philips dvp plays videos from straight from the card reader!
cons: reader doesn't fit in the USB slot that freely and it is bit small for those large hands Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Doing great so far Wednesday, November 19, 2008 A Customer from Nowata OK
The product is working great for us but it is a little small I am hoping I don't lose it. It is compatable with vista which makes me very happy and my daughter is able to transfer info from school to home. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 Smaller Can Be Better! Much Better! Wednesday, November 19, 2008 A Customer from Media, PA
It's all how you work it-
This is one of the very very few products out there that makes me say... "Perfect".
Thank you Kingston, you hit the nail on the head with this one! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Excellent buy Monday, November 17, 2008 Kenn from Portsmouth, VA
This is the smallest and easiest to use thumb drive equivalent. I can use this with the other micro chips (1, 2, 4 and 8 gig) used by my cell phone and fits the adapter to use in my SD card camera. It works great in my car stereo too. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Great, but extremely small Monday, November 17, 2008 A Customer from Brooklyn, NY
Great, great product. I can transfer the Micro-SD card between several machines - my Sansa, cell phone, etc.
Only problem is taking the card out of the slot. That's a little annoying, but that's just nitpicking.
Totally worth the price. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 GREAT PRICE, GREAT DEVICE Monday, November 17, 2008 Dennis from Richmond,VA
I LOVE THIS. I can plug the MICRO-SD into the USB Adapter and copy data anywhere between phones and my PC. The PRICE is just awesome. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Nice and... Sunday, November 16, 2008 Tony from Virginia
it works fine with my BB Pearl 8110...no probs at all. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Ultra portable, upgradable, great price! Sunday, November 16, 2008 tocaman from Indianapolis, IN
First "thumb" drive I've ever purchased. Should be called a thumbnail drive. Gets a little hot when transferring large files, but overall, a great alternative to (the now seemingly bulky) thumb drive. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Great!! Sunday, November 16, 2008 Sly from Lubbock, Tx
Great bang for the buck, runs very warm after prolonged used in usb slot. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Great flexability in uses Sunday, November 16, 2008 A Customer from Charlotte, NC
I bought it for about $12 delivered, and would buy it again after using it. Offers great flexability in uses. Was this review helpful?
4 of 5 very small Sunday, November 16, 2008 A Customer from Durham, NC
I bought this reader to read the card off my LG venus phone. Other readers where you inserted the micro SD into to a regular SD did not work for me. I have an 8 gig micro SD and it worked great. It is very small and has a kind of strange string thing that keeps the reader in its case but it seems to working fine so far. I have had good luck with Kingston products. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Reliable memory @ a low cost! Sunday, November 16, 2008 A Customer from CA
Increased the memory for my AT&T Tilt (HTC Kaiser) cell phone without breaking the bank. Would recommend. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Kingston USB microSD/microSDHC Reader with 4GB mi Sunday, November 16, 2008 A Customer from Zion, IL
Super little device. Let's me move files easily from my phone to my computer and vice versa with ease. Great value for the dollar! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 So far so good! Tuesday, November 11, 2008 A Customer from Lee, New Hampshire
Kingston is not selling the product as "Readyboost" compatible when used with the USB reader, but it checks out just fine! At least it does on the two Vista systems at my house (one is running Vista Business, the other Home Premium). The combination of the 4GB card and the reader is far smaller than the typical USB drive, but has the same or better functionality. Great product.

5 of 5 The best thing ever! So small and useful. Thursday, October 30, 2008 Jerry D. from Massapequa, NY
This thing is great!! Use it from one computer to another then take the chip out and stick it into my cell phone. Its great and i would recommend this to anyone. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Small, and a good price Monday, October 27, 2008 Orweller from Kalamazoo, MI
Reader is tiny, very very portable...
Works great on my PC, but card is not compatible with my Motorola V3M phone. I will use it on the PC as a tiny thumb drive instead. Was this review helpful?
