Hurrah! After doing as you suggested Chuck I have found there is a
mislabeled short cable that isn't USB 2.0. It came with one of my devices
and since it was the shortest one I owned I switched it with the long one
that was supplied with the Imagemate reader. After changing it out I emptied
a full Ultra II 1GB card in 1 minute 49 seconds! Fantastic! I will now
replace that cable with a shorty from Cyberguys when I put in my next order.
Thanks for giving me a nudge to actually test this properly. I still love
the Epson though :)

I also have the Imagemate SDDR-92 and can verify that it reads Ultra II CF
cards at about 8.5 MB/sec when connected to my older 1.3 GHz AMD machine. I
haven't tried it on my newer fire breathing Dell with Core 2 Duo processor
since it has its own reader which performs at pretty much the same rate. I
take the 8.5 MB/sec +/- a bit to be close to the limit of the Ultra II.
Have you tried a hookup directly to each of the three USB ports on the
machine without the docking station involved? Have you ever tried your
reader on another machine? Have you ever tried your reader using the cable
from one of the devices that doesn't seem to suffer performance problems?
If you can't find anyone locally to test it for you send me your SDDR-92 and
I'll test it and send it back.
