my delkin usb bridge came two days ago and i can recommend it to just about anyone who’s looking for such a device. i did test runs copying from (my pqi wallet usb drive, a canon g5, a canon sd300) to (my iriver). copy times were better than i expected since it claims usb 1.1 speeds. all backups were successful and i was able to use the “data verify” function to confirm that the copy worked for the cameras. with the usb pocket drive, after it successfully copied the data it went into a weird undocumented light state and i had to disconnect my devices. this was discouraging but since it worked and since the camera scenario (which is what i care about) worked with no problems, i’m not so worried. i’d read while researching usb otg that manufacturers have had problems supporting devices that are powered over the usb bus, so maybe that’s what was up. anyway, i’m a happy customer! a picture of the device is in my flickr stream.
