I was with another traveller in Germany where we found, in a camera shop, an adapter that allowed for both kind of discs and, also, a memory stick - all in one little blue plastic USB adapter, in a very attractive little travel case. It worked well for my Smart Media card and, from lack of complaint, I assume for his Sony memory sticks as well. The thing only cost about $50 and I remember him being impressed with the price for its functionality.
