MobileMate multi-card readers from SanDisk

Alright, well at least now you'll be able to pick up a card reader compatible with that new 256MB TransFlash card we just mentioned. SanDisk are gearing up to release MobileMate, a stick-sized USB2.0 multi-card reader that will handle several of those new micro flash memory card formats, including SD, MiniSD, MultiMediaCard, RS-MMC and TransFlash, while the MobileMate MS will handle the four MemoryStick formats.  Both units are USB2.0 and should be useful for users of newer card slot-equipped cellphones.  The good news is that SanDisk plans to retail both of these for only $19.99 each.  The bad news?  Another little thingy to carry around and lose. But we'll live.
