Fortunately, you get enough people with a common need in a room, and you end up with a solution like the zoomIt. :) And there’s nothing wrong with that, Mikey… you just happen to be the exception rather than the rule, in that regard.

The "dongle" is just temporary to use just to read the cards. After you're done with the cards, you remove the reader. Probably because you gotta charge the iPhone SOMEHOW. @ Jared Morgan… The “dongle” is just temporary to use just to read the cards. After you’re done with the cards, you remove the reader.

That dongle looks huge and ungainly attached to the device. Is it just me, or are you also wondering why they didn’t use MicroSDHC cards instead of the huge SD cards?

Apple's modus operandi is pretty much "keep it simple, and only provide the features that most people are going to use." Most people aren't going to use an SD card slot unless it's to add supplemental storage space on a device that has a laughable amount of storage by default (ask anyone who ever owned a Treo). I can absolutely see the market segment that the zoomIt is aimed at, but that market is also not the majority of iPhone owners. I dunno, Mikey.

Hope it's not a vaporware product. Wonder if Apple will lock it down after they find out about it. I just ordered one. Hope it’s not a vaporware product.
