The Sports Photo Guy

Several announcements of note were made regarding UDMA CompactFlash cards at the Photo Marketing Association show this past week.

Delkin had their ImageRouter 4-card USB CF reader on display.  With a planned April shipping date, this 4-card reader offers UDMA compatibility though only claims 19 MB/sec read speed.

PNY announced a 32GB addition (why?) to their Pro UDMA lineup.

Pretec showcased a 48GB (this is just ridiculous…) CF card from their new 333x line.

Sandisk did not announce any UDMA cards, but they jumped on the ridiculous card size bandwagon with 16GB and 32GB Ultra II cards, both rated at 15GB15MB/sec speeds or nearly as fast as their Extreme III line.
