 Excellent Card Reader/Writer July 23, 2008

I've been doing machine embroidery for about 5 years, and just purchased my first Brother machine (which I absolutely adore). Before that, I have 2 other machines, and I used card readers/writers by Amazing Box. My first one broke. The second one still works. But, these Amazing Box products are amazingly flimsy, light and cheap. The software barely works with any operating system, and trying to used the things was always on a hope and a prayer.
Then, because I want everything to be just perfect with my new and expensive Brother machine, I bought the PED Basic box with blank card media. I plugged it into my USB, loaded the software, and transferred a design from my computer to the card without having to even look at any instructions. The card then went into my machine, the machine picked out the design, and everything stitched flawlessly.
The PED Basic card reader/writer is small and compact, but has a good amount of weight to it. It feels sturdy and of high quality. It is fast and simple to use. So, even if I didn't have 2 inferior products to compare this to, I'd still have to give this box 5 stars.
And, you definitely can't beat the price at Amazon! Now, I just have to find an additional blank card, since I like to have 2 or 3 of them "just in case".

Excellent. Worked great the first time. I downloaded free embroidery designs from various websites and wrote it to memory card and plugged card into Brother SE270D sewing machine.
I paid $129.73 for this, now it is even cheaper.
I liked it so much that I purchased another blank read/write card (compatible with Brother SE270D machine) since I purchased so many more embroidery designs.
Fun and easy to use! June 11, 2008

My husband purchased this for me as an accessory to my PE270D machine. It really makes transferring designs easy! It is easy to learn for just about anyone and you can even resize and view the colors for each design in the preview tab. I recommend this primarily for newbies to embroidery but of course it is great for all just for the blank card and ease of use.
Basic, easy way to transfer embroidery files May 19, 2008

Not much to say about this... just that it works well for transferring embroidery files from your computer to the data card. Easy to use, basic program. Lets you do minor resizing of files, and you can look at a preview of what the design will look like once stitched.
I just wish that you could do more with this program, as far as minor edits, especially for the high cost... but I have another program for that now.
If you have Windows Vista, go to the Brother website to download a different driver for the card reader - don't use the included disc.
