I just purchased an N800 for use on a bicycle tour. I also have an old Canon G3 camera, which uses CompactFlash cards. I have a card reader for this that works via standard USB. I am wondering what the current state of the art is with the N800 in terms of being able to get files off that CompactFlash card and onto the N800. Does anybody have any experience of this, or pointers to resources? I found this link which seems to talk about an N800 multi-card reader, but I'm not sure I believe it:

It seems to be just the trick, but when you do searches for the part number (USB-1710) it appears to be just another standard USB card reader. I know the N800 has a mini-USB slot, and I'm also aware that there have been issues with USB on the N800 in the past... is this still the case?
Or do I need to get a different camera, one that uses SD cards?
Thanks,
/Neil
