spinal	why the hell does an SD extension cable cost ten times as much as a USB SD reader?!! -=-=- Check out my excellent homepage!

Jayenkai	I'd imagine Demand may be an issue. Millions use USB readers, so economies of scale reduces the cost of manufacturing. Whereas hardly anyone would buy a cable, so the price of those is more expensive. (I did ALevel Business Studies, dont'ya'know!) ... It's still a ludicrous price difference, though, so I imagine there's also a "tinkerer's fee" attatched, because they KNOW you really want it!! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

cyangames	Why not get a USB extension cable instead? That'd do the job with a card reader attached. -=-=- Web / Game Dev, occasionally finishes off coding games also!

spinal	cheap card readers usually fail quite quickly and I'm not paying for a 'quality' one. -=-=- Check out my excellent homepage!
