When one card reader isn't enough...try 4.

Delkin has released a 4 slot CF UDMA USB 2.0 reader.

Does Delkin know something we don't know? Is the new Sony going to come with 4 CF bays to hold 24MP images at 6fps? I don't think the throughput can get any faster, but I guess if you have a lot of cards to download to your computer at one time, you can multi-task and not have to switch out cards as often.

that is really cool but you need to have or purchase special software to take advantage of the multiple cards. the prices i saw are $149/ device only. $249 bundled with backupandburn software. you caught my attention with this, but it might be overkill for most users. wedding studios would be rejoicing with this one, methinks.
of course, if you have a storage device, this might be unnecessary after all.

I agree with you on the storage device. I'm trying to think who would use this the most - sports maybe in the old days, but they're switching to the wi-fi built in/add-ons on the pro models (or the vertical grips of others). Wedding seems right, esp now that Nikon has gone to dual CF, and I'm sure the D3 can do the dual-recording so it would take TWO card failures at the same time to lose someone's most precious memories.

But will Delkin do when someone comes out with a 6 card slot reader? ;D
