No argument, Charlie. I started out with a Fuji F-10, which had an xD
card and a bunch of cables for charging the battery and transferring
images, so I just continued down that path.
Now, I would have to figure out where a multi-card adapter would fit on
my busy desk! ;-)

I understand, Jim. But in my house we have Olympus E cameras (CF and
rarely used xD), an Olympus SP-something or other (SmartMedia card) that I
still use for infrared photos and assorted Canon and Nikon P&S cameras (SD
cards). So a multicard reader is a lot easier that keeping track of cables.

Hi Charlie,
I expected this comment, but I have never seen a need to purchase such a
device. With USB connectors handy on the front of the computer, and
cables in a convenient drawer, I saw no reason to remove cards from the
camera each time I wanted to dump the card.
For others who asked, the E-1 uses one CF card. The E-510 uses one CF
and one xD card.
I also use a USB cable with my iPhone 6.

I still have the cord that came with my E-thingy but I rarely use it.
I
have a device with slots for every card known to man. Takes CF, SD, XD
and
SmartMedia cards.

As I was transferring images from my Olympus E-1 to my computer, I
wondered how many of today's digital photographers have ever used a
transfer cable. The modern SD cards and the like are taken for
granted. But, for some of us, with large, slow cards, this is how it's
done.
