I've got a Nikon Coolpix 4300 and I've got the date/time set on it. It's
not the fault of the camera, it's the crappy software that came with it. As
previously I've got a USB 2.0 card reader at home, it's in a 3.5" bay and I
love it. I saw it on the intarwebnet and couldn't pass up the deal. It was
under $20 I think, and it's almost instantaneous to unload a 128mb card
using it.
