Found a card reader - NZ$30 and linux compatible. Probably will buy one
great. people also try to get rid of used ones,
because readers are integrated in printers, tvs, laptops etc now.
your card reader should not be compatible with your camera,
it will connect the memory card with the computer.
you can find readers using usb1 or usb2 connections.
readers also differ in how many different card formats they support.
standard now is 5-7 different formats all in one,
and they cost up to 30$.
be careful not to buy memory cards with copy protection scheme.
does your memory stick have copy-protection ?
i am out of my league here but sony does play nasty proprietary tricks ...

CPRM technology, a copy protection mechanism is embedded in all SD Memory Cards and can be used to protect copyrighted content such as most commercially distributed music and movie files.
