Nearly every PC we've seen lately comes with some form of card reader built in. Beantech's BT-9023 internally-mounted reader has an advantage over all of these - it has a USB 2.0 interface and the card reader itself is removeable.

The reader part of the BT-9023 is pocket-sized and has a USB 2.0 port at the back, so with a USB cable you can use it on any system with a USB port.

It can accept Type 1 and II Compact Flash cards, IBM Microdrives, SmartMedia, SD, MMC and both Memory Stick and Memory Stick Pro cards.[QQ] The kit comes with a 3.5in drive bay mount which also includes two USB 2.0 ports, fixing screws and a data cable to connect it to a motherboard header.
