Thanks Josh, The lack of sudden lack of firewire readers by Sandisk and Lexar is both perplexing and frustrating. I've been trudging along with my good ole purple Lexar FW400 reader, but it's tethered cord is getting finicky. I should have gotten a couple of SanDisk Extreme FireWire readers back in the day. I suggested them enough to clients I consult digital to, DOH!
