I have the ibook G4. I don't have my receipt here ay work, but its something in
the area
of 1.33 to 1.8
Hz. I bought it last September, and i THOUGHT it was to have included 2 usb 2
slots.
Both cards read at GFM, and at home for that matter, were the 2gig Sandisk
Exteme III
cards. One with
Nikon Nef/Jpg files and the other with Pentax Pef files.
Its at least 20 min for a d/l.
I never timed my PC Windoze XP home SP2 with usb 1 slots, but going through
PS's download
screens
take about the same time, more or less.
