The easiest way is to buy the cheapest, that way if if doesn't work. You can either throw it away or return it and try another without it costing too much. Though for what its worth, they are solid state devices, they don't have any moving parts so aren't likely to not work. Here's some more for your perusal http://froogle.google.co.uk/froogle?q=SD+Card+Reader&btnG=Search+Froogle&hl=en if you're using a laptop, you may like the ones that look like a usb flash drive ie: small compact, if you're using a desktop, then a desktop model (small black box) maybe preferred.
As long as it support SD (Secure Digital) cards, there shouldn't be any problems.
HTHIt could have been worse. At least source code's not combustible, or you can bet somebody at McAfee would have lit it.0 -

Can your camera not plug into your USB port?
Heres one for under £3 (although they charge postage and packing which is probably more than the card reader ... but you can always stock up on SD cards and rechargeable batteries at the same time
).
