Nexto Ultra ND-2525
I have in my possession my very own Nexto Ultra portable image storage, um, thingy. I ordered mine from the good folks at EastGear.com. They gave the cheapest price and they included the 17-in-one card CF adapter and an extra external battery.
I’m going through the paces of fondling testing the gadget as I write this. I was a tad disappointed with the build of the device; it seems much sturdier on the product images. Everything is controlled by one button (!) depending on the context; you have short (“S”) and long (“L”) press to sort through the menus.
Copying is wicked fast with the 50x Kingston Elite Pro. The display (with almost non-existent backlighting) shows you how long it took to copy all the files from the CF to the HDD.
All in all, I’m happy so far. We’ll see how it performs in the field.
While you wait for my thorough review (which may not be written soon), read this excellent review from another photographer with much higher credibility than me. Note that I did not go through the same import inquiry hassle that he did; he was probably one of the first owners from the US of the product.
