It's Made in Taiwan

My SohoUSB 55-in-1 card reader was Made in Taiwan

When shopping at NOVA last weekend for a card reader with which to upload images from my digital camera to my computer, everything I found there was made in China. I looked at more than 20 different ones trying to find one which was made in Taiwan -- or at least not made in China -- but to no avail.

One of the last salespeople I talked to insisted that I wouldn't be able to find one that wasn't made in China. He probably just wanted me to buy one from him, but I took it as a challenge to prove him wrong.

A short while later, I went home and Googled [讀卡機 台灣製造 OR 台灣製] plus the specs of what I needed. Within a few minutes, I found one which met all of my prerequisites, including that it be made in Taiwan.

To top it off, I was able to order it online (without using a credit card!), have it delivered to a nearby 7-Eleven (where I could pay cash), and pick it up only two days after ordering.

Awesome!
