View Full Version : Where to buy the card reader???

I've been looking for the card reader (or better yet, some external reader with an interface better than USB). The PCIe readers people have been posting about all seem to be meant for PCs, with the handling practicalities of the Mac Pro. To work with a Mac Pro, the reader pretty much needs to be external (although it could have a PCIe card connected to an external box). The machine is too heavy for a reader with a slot in the back to be practical, and the odd arrangement of the DVD burner slots eliminates anything that sits in a drive bay.
Does anyone know of anything that will work, or know where the Sony reader is in stock?

Abel just got some in. I received mine today, but wasn't at home to meet the fedex guy! I'd give them a call...and they're a sponsor!

Thanks for the tipoff - I just ordered mine from Abel after confirming it was in stock (they seem to have at least a few more as well, in case anyone else is looking)...
