Cool project. But maybe they realized that while they were building for Android, there's still no way to natively detect/mount those flash cards/flash drives.

I think that's the main deterrent for any company to do anything like this. Apart from some hobbyists I haven't seen anything of the likes.
 
I've been following the progress of the adapter, but then saw this one too and thought it looks much better as it has the options of other devices and cards too.

Is worth mentioning tho that you'll need to pay for an app that uses a workaround to let you read the storage, since it's not supported. Rooting is the ideal option, since it allows android to interact with the drives as if they were local storage. NTFS drives can't be written to however (on stock kernel anyway).

That's correct, the App to read without rotting is $2.99.

Rooting is so easy, with the 1 click root toolkit, is really no reason not to.
