Where are the photos???

After two years of reliable service, my "card reader" has finally gone "on the fritz." Ironic, since now I will depend on Fritz to repair or replace it.

The card reader is essentially a floppy disk drive that plugs into a USB port. It's the size of a double-wide flash drive (aka thumb drive, USB key, etc.), and the "floppy disks" are miniature 512 mb cards that fit into my Nikon digital. It only cost $25, and seems so flimsy that I should count myself lucky it lasted this long. Why it couldn't have broken down a couple of days before I left on my trip, I don't know.

So I can't upload photos for another day or two. Stand by....

Comments:
compact Flash cards? Hopefully, they also have these in Germany, so if you can find the German equivalent of Best Buy you should be able to replace it fairly cheaply/easily.
 
VW,

You are so right! That's exactly where I found it after striking out at no fewer than 3 camera shops.
