You will definately want to get a card reader. There is no point connecting your camera directly to your computer, all it will do is waste your batteries. Card readers are available in USB 2.0 and Firewire, both are fast, but you will be limited by the speed of the memory card. I have a USB 1.1 card reader and it takes only a couple of minutes to transfer a full 256 meg Memory Stick Pro. I recommend you pick up a USB reader because they're typically $20, and the firewire ones are more expensive, like I said, you are limited by the speed of the card, so you won't notice a difference between USB 2.0 and firewire.
