Roadstor

For anyone who's traveled for more than a month, particularly across some remote deserts with no smelly Internet cafe in site, I'm sure you've cursed the digital world. While there are infinite advantages to that new CanonSD300 you just bought, when losing your camera means losing your photos, and storage is limited, the situation sucks. Imperfect solutions, like laptops (heavy), extra cards (finite) and hard-drives (expensive) will work, but provide no backup. Micro Solutions' Roadstor, a CD-writer/DVD-player combo, will apparently keep us smiling both in front of the camera and behind it, allowing you to burn CDs, and reading MultiMedia Card, Secure Digital, Memory Stick, SmartMedia, CompactFlash Types I/II and IBM Microdrive formats. Basically, Roadstor allows you to download photos and burn cds without a computer. There's no visual screen, but that's the breaks.
