SDHC Card Reader USB 2.0 £1.00 at Poundland
Just wanted to let others know that the SD card readers from Poundland have been updated to support USB 2.0 and SDHC cards. The older version they stocked (which looks almost identical) does not support the SDHC cards but these newer ones do and at only £1 are a steal IMO. Watch out though because when I was in the new and old versions of the reader were all mixed together. The new one can be identified by having the USB 2.0 logo stamped on it in small print. I'll post some pictures in a moment. Works perfectly with my Play.com 4GB SDHC card :-).

Old one which is not compatible but still in stock and mixed in with the others looks like this..
Also on the newer readers you can see the connector attached to the pcb where the card gets plugged in is white as opposed to the old version which was black.
And available in a range of different colours too :thumbsup:.

Yes - but these seem a different design and Tony Harrisons info on the differences between the similar looking non-SDHC readers is very useful. Hot :thumbsup:
Heat has been added :-) xx
I thought it had probably been posted already but couldn't find it. Thing is though I already bought one of those about a year ago but like I say the ones from a few months back aren't compatible with SDHC (it caused my comp to crash/freeze when I inserted the SDHC card but SD was fine). I got another today just to test out and see if things had changed and seems they have. I posted pictures and extra details so people would know which are SDHC and which are just SD. This is the cheapest SDHC card reader (guaranteed compatible) I could find so I thought I should post and give others a heads up.
But there is a Poundland in my local high street - I'm likely to be shopping there way before a parcel from deal extreme would arrive... :)
And how does that compare to the cost of electricity which was needed for you to order it online, not forgetting that you'd probably need a light on too (unless you like sitting in complete darkness) and the cost has now gone up by most of the energy suppliers! Don't forget to take into account the cost of your broadband connection as well as your telephone line (ADSL only) for the time it took to order it.
If your car can't travel more than 10m for 30p then I'd strongly suggest you cease trying to find £1.30 bargains for USB readers and think about buying a more economical car. The saying 'having bigger fish to fry' couldn't be more pertinent.
Seriously, some people are so pedantic! Surely just popping into Poundland the next time you're in town wouldn't actually cost you any more, since you'd be there for another purpose?

right so you are saying it would be easier and more economical for me to drive a 40 mile roundtrip to my nearest poundland park up in a **** hole town which i never go to then fight the queue of local ****** in a 10 minute till wait. hey surprise surprise the light was already on in my room and hey guess what! i didnt just ring up and get broadband in order to purchase that usb reader i already had it, amazing ay.
i cant believe you actually tried to argue that fact
Yeah but I don't think they support the read/write speads the SDHC ones are capable of.

To travel 10 miles for 30p at £1.10 a litre your car would need to do about 150 mpg. Better buy a moped!
