I have an easy share camera (love it).  While it supports an SD card, there is 32 MG internal memory.  I am using gtkam to access the camera and all of the memory and it works GREAT.  Yes I can take out the card and put it in my flashreader too.  I also have the printer for it, so sometimes I put pix on the card (that weren't taken with the camera) so that I can print it out on that printer).

HTH,
Susan

P.S.  I have an HP photo printer on another machine which I sometimes use, but the kodak printer has really great quality and it's easy.  FWIW - I use the tool for the job at hand :)
