Another “many-in-one” gadget. A 55-in-1 Card Reader. The “many-in-one” here doesn’t refer to the card types supportted. It refers to some other functions that it carries. As it’s not only a common card reader, it’s also a Bluetooth dongle and somemore it’s a USB 2.0 2-port hub. It has 7 memory card slots, which can support up to 55 types of memory cards.
Since it’s also a Bluetooth dongle, so you can connect it to your Non-Bluetooth PC to turn it into a Bluetooth-enabled PC, which allows your PC to communicate with other Bluetooth devices. As mentioned, it’s a 2-port USB 2.0 hub. There are actually three USB ports on it. When you connect it to your PC, one port will be used to connect it to your PC’s USB port as well as taking power from it. Therefore, you have only two ports available for use to connect to your other USB gadgets. Even though, this little gadget carries quite a number of functions, it costs you less than $30.00 at Brando.
