I bought an Imagetank G2 for much the same reasons as you. I wanted only a device to do a one button dump from CF card. The device does double as a CF card reader too. It will also dump to a CF card and allows you to check the folders that it makes automatically for you with each dump. It works great and comes with an A/C and auto adaptor. I just got the 20 gig but the drive can be replaced. I also like the way it shuts off automatically soon after use and it charges from any voltage in the world. Small enough to clip on your belt and really really easy to use. -- Jim Davis, Nature Photography http://jimdavis.oberro.com/ Standard Poodles for fun BMW motorcycle for pleasure
