Im absolutely SICK of how a simple USB2 card reader cant be properly recognized, or how my images become corrupted after connecting them to the powerbook. This is clearly a drive…

im not the only one with this problem, LOTS of others have it too: http://discusssearch.info.apple.com/...AN.7@.599d2315

I use a PC Card reader, attainable for less than $10.00 at Amazon--for a brand name; I believe it's faster too. (This setup) seems to work fine for me.

I doubt that it is faster than usb2.0 glad you arent havint problems

I have had many problems with my early rev powerbook similar to Scott. It seemed to be going back every 4 months even though I took great care of the whole thing. Apple finally ha…

TRACKPOINTS RULE. please make this BTO Apple... (yeah right.........this will happen only after Apple releases a 2 button/scroll wheel mouse) READ: NEVER.

Shoot. I bought a rev. A 12" 867mhz powerbook a month ago.. It was perfect then.. but now I am noticing the wobble, and the aluminum right next to the latch-release button has po…

I just had the same problem. No wobble for 2 months. Yesterday - massive wobble that won't go away. Anyone have a fix?

Hey is this on the 12 inch? My girlfriend just mentioned her 12 PB wobbles due to the battery not seating flush! We went to the Apple Store in Clarendon, VA and got rude treatmen…
