This device is capable of emptying your CF cards onto its 10Gb HDD. Nothing special you would say, but the advantages of the Nexto CF are: the writing speed is 16Mb/sec (the secret lies in the fact that the Nexto reads and writes the data at the same time, the competition reads first and then writes the data), reduced dimensions and weight (128x70x23 and 180g), and USB and Firewire (Mac owners will love this)."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/NEX.JPG" /><br /><br />If you don't like the previous DIY device, they also have a pre-built model that is more compact.
