Wireless devices are usually far more convenient than their tethered alternative. But in this case losing the USB cable has made the REX-WIFISD1 SD/SDHX/SDXC and flash drive reader a bit on the bulky side. So what do you really gain for it being wireless? The ability to access it from any mobile device.
Apple already sells a memory card adapter for its iOS devices, but this is a more universal solution letting Android hardware and Windows/Mac PCs access the data from an attached storage device. Of course the onboard wireless hardware is powered by a 3,000 mAh battery, which should give upwards of nine hours of operation. And not surprisingly, given the extra functionality the REX-WIFISD1 is priced bit higher than your average card reader at £60. So is this one worth importing? If you abhor cables the answer is obvious. [RATOC Systems via Akihabara News]

They’ve missed a trick and a market by not having a CF slot.
I think it is more a trick regarding plugging a corruptible hole. I am not sure the profits would be much more if they had a CF slot, at a risk of stability and speed being decreased. Overall I think it makes for a better user experience in the long run.
I personally love devices with CF slots, but I can understand why Google and Apple would want to stay away from them.
