That's scary. While the camedia software is pretty much worthless,
getting your card reader to work is pretty important. I hope history is
no indication here, recalling back to the ES-10 slide scanner and the
threads here describing lack of support and updates for that unit.
Olympus apparently needs to steer clear of the software biz I think...
On the bright side, you can get a combination SM/CF USB bus card reader
pretty cheap now anyway (like ~$50.00 or so). Question, since you have
the card reader, is the card reader really any faster than copying files
off the E-10 as a drive hooked to the USB port?
