Normally an external memory card reader must be
purchased separately in order to use memory cards from
devices such as digital cameras, MP3 players, mobile
phones, and PDAs. This Notebook PC has a built-in highspeed memory card reader that can conveniently read from
and write to many flash memory cards.

USB Port (2.0)
The USB (Universal Serial Bus) port is compatible with USB
2.0 or USB 1.1 devices such as keyboards, pointing devices,
cameras, hard disk drives, printers, and scanners connected
in a series up to 12Mbits/sec (USB 1.1) and 480Mbits/sec
(USB 2.0). USB allows many devices to run simultaneously
on a single computer, with some peripherals acting as
additional plug-in sites or hubs. USB supports hot-swapping
