USB media reader now with Bluetooth, blinkenlights

From the city that brought us such delicious items like dim sum and old school Chow Yun-Fat movies, we now have what may be the most amazing memory card reader in history. In fact, one might even say that its card reading fu is better than yours. This reader supports 52 types of memory cards (switch 'em up every week!) and also features an integrated Bluetooth adapter. As you can see in the semi-annoying animated gif at right, it comes in "multi moody colours" -- is that like a mood ring?

Who can resist blinkenlights? I know I can't.

I can't imagine wanting wireless connectivity SOOO bad to endure the slowness and annoyance of the current state of Bluetooth.

so, is that to mean you can read and write to the cards over bluetooth? or it just acts as a dongle and still transferes to the computer over usb 2.0? cause i don't need bluetooth, already built in, but would be handy for camera transfers.

Bear in mind that this could be Bluetooth 2.0 EDR, which is quite a bit faster than what your mobile phone has :)

Is this the first ever flashing Engadget post, too?

WooHoo; a BeOS reference!
