I've got a ZiO! USB card reader for SmartMedia. I've never tried it 
with FC4, but it works very well with FC5.

The only problem I have found is that the icon on the desktop does 
not change from it's mounted status after right click-safely remove, 
but it does in fact dismount it I think. Same for a digital camera 
we've got. I might file a bug about it one day if it doesn't get cleared up.
