USB: Bluetooth sync or SD card reader ?

I am debating to get the usb plug for the bluetooth sync option or to get the SD card reader - can anyone give a real quick pro/con or suggestion on which to buy?

I have no real goal, just basically getting things onto my SD card...so logically the SD reader may be a better option, unless the bluetooth can sync in a decent amount of time in which case i'd be happy with that

i tried to sync a 100MB .avi last nite and i encountered my first real sync error, and ended up having to do a soft reset and fidget with the hot sync for over an hour to get it to work again (the file ended up being corrupt and i had to delete it off my card)

SD card reader - no question about it. If you're just going to put files on ur SD card for your Treo, the SD card reader will do it the fastest. BT is very slow; I only use BT to transfer very small files (<1MB) to my handheld.

You might want to try Card Export. It makes your Treo act like a SD card reader - it appears as another volume on your computer.
