Here’s a neat little gadget that makes it easier to insert your memory cards. The Elecom MR-C25 Series is a basic USB memory card reader with a twist- it has the card reader turned 180 degrees for more visible access. No more craning your neck or lifting up your laptop so there’s enough clearance for your fingers to get under the memory card to pull them out. No need to remove the whole USB device to be able to put memory cards.
It’s a pretty smart design that’s especially handy if you swap out memory cards frequently. Unfortunately this is a Japan import that’s priced pretty high for a memory card reader at around $40 but the convenience just might be worth it for you.
