Look at this picture i just took of the USB MicroSD reader that came with my R4DS. Everyone else seems to have a see through coloured plastic one.... Does this mean mine is fake? I hope its not! I mean, it has worked fine, and will continue to, i hope, but i would hate to have a fake one!

You forgot to put the pic in your post. I wouldn't judge whether or not your R4 is kosha from the USB reader, the R4 team have used a few different types of readers since they first started selling the R4DS.

The fake ones have built in memory, and the R4 has come with lots of different typs of card readers anyway. They probably just use the ones they can find cheapest at that time.

I have that Micro SD Card reader.

You have NOT got a fake R4.

People have the 'see through coloured plastic one's' because they got the 'early' batches, the R4 change the stuff from time to time hence the reason you, me and mostly more new people who got a r4 have that reader/writer.

I got a clear plastic one with my M3 simply & it sucks.

MAkes a horrid crunchy sound when I put the micro SD in. Im convinced it'll kill the card one day.

Well, let's not make it too pointless: I have a M3 Simply, and I know it's real. It came with the exact same TF-adapter.

I think that if you use the newest official software on a fake R4 it won't even start... not sure though.

That's too bad... But why don't you buy a cheap SD reader and use your adapter that came with the MicroSD card?
