I love cheap China manufactured merchandise. This reader is available in 3 colours. Last year, I purchased one shaped liked this from a local Ebay seller for $5 - the markings were different but it was probably made in the same factory and does actually work at USB2 speeds. Hmm, I wonder how long it will take until it is sold out? Meritiline cheapies are really popular with my fellow parsimonious Ozbargainers.
