Unfortunately none of them are marked anywhere. The newer box shaped should/maybe, seems like I will have to buy one to find out.

I've got one of the box shaped ones (at least I'm assuming that's what it is, because it doesn't look like a cross)

I just tried it out with my Maxell 12 Gb mini portable HD, it seems to work fine, it loads the software no bother & you can explore the device
however, windows throws up a load of warnings about not getting the best from it as it's not attached to a high-speed USB port

anway, it does look as if it will work with USB 2, but it might slow things down a bit

Thanks for that, saved me a trip.
Yours, (blue one?) is USB 1 then, since you get the warnings about your device could work faster. (i.e. if you had a USB2 hub). Booger, I was hoping they had upped the spec with the shape change, ah well here's to the next model.:rolleyes:

PS USB is backwards compatible with earlier versions.

Can confirm the blue 4 block one is only usb1.O

The USB extendable extension cable (thin cable on a reel) doesn't want to play ball either but I just think its faulty but the 2 adapters it comes with are worth a quid anyway.

Th SD card readers that are bell shaped are also SDHC capable as well as the white stick ones.

Hi all !

I've searched this thread, but cannot find - if posted apologies.

Kettering Poundland, La Femme Fenjal body cream 150 ml
"swiss made/ . . . Johnson and Johnson" on the lable.

Hope it's not a fake, but sure has the authentic fenjal perfume !
