You can get a RoadStor on Ebay for less than $30.00.

Another photo management solution, which I've  mentioned before, is a
RoadStor, was the better part of $200 at Circuit  City, et al. Better do
some
research to check current availability and  $.
    It's a CD burner in a that will burn from all the  common camera
chips/cards. It has some weight, so it's a bounce bucket item. At  a town
stop, I burn
two CDs (from Sams in bulk, incl plastic case), put them in  two padded 6 x
9
envelopes (from Sams in bulk). One gets mailed home; one gets  mailed to a
brother in another state; so, it costs about a dollar per stop to  make sure
no
photos get lost.
    Having no CD player at home, except in the  computer, I use the RoadStor
to watch CDs on the TV. What CDs? I seem to have  accumulated several about
a
certain western US hiking trail; I've seen them all  twice. Counting ADZ
showings, I've seen some three or four times.
    When I bought my 1 GB cards, they were about  $40-50, as I recall. With
the price much lower now, the situation has changed  somewhat. However, if
that
card gets lost, ..... I still like my two CDs  for loss prevention.
