Academic. If you have any sense you'll shove the memory card in a USB2
reader anyway.

So why would you not have sense if you don't do that?
I use my camera daily, and would get really annoyed taking the card out
all the time. I just connect it to the mac and iPhoto grabs the
pictures.

Because USB2 card readers are significantly faster than a cable from the
camera.

Even USB2 cameras?

I know iPhoto is much maligned, but I like it.

I wasn't saying that iPhoto was useless or anything - just that card
readers are the best way of getting photos onto the computer, IMHO.

For a large number of pictures, yes.
