Well in followup to my original post , I ended up going with the Dazzle
brand (SCM Microsystems), but when I went to the local Compusa store to
purchase it the original model dm-8400 was not available (geeze that
was fast) :^(
So after some quiet deliberation as to whether the new model (6-in-1 dm-21200)
would work under Linux , I decided to gamble, spring for it ($49) and a
lexar mmc card , went home plugged it into my SuSE box and -bang- it
recognized it , automatically made a mount point for me (/media/sdf1) and
I am ready to go !
And it recognized my smart media card for my camera as well.
Since I already had the usb-storage module setup for my digital camera,
that part was not necessary, so it was truly a plug-n-play (yecchh)
experience :^)
Thanks all for the input , just thought I would let others know that this
model anyway works great with SuSE 8.0 :)
