Default access to old media cards

My first digital camera was an Olympus 460Zoom which used smartmedia
cards.
A few years ago, I purchased a Fuji Finepix 700 which uses sD cards.

I am thinking of giving away the Olympus and ,even though I have all my
pictures taken with the Olympus ae backed up on disc, and harddrives,
if I ever wanted to use the smartmedia cards to access the pictures,
what would I use?

Did I read that there are readers?

Thanks Liz

Yes there are readers out there. My wife still uses the same D-460
for ebay pics and it has an old slow serial interface. I picked up a
Dazzle 6 in 1 USB reader years ago to read the smartmedia card faster.
It still works great

Today I'd look at the Sandisk reader also. the 12 in 1 reader will
read smartmedia, about 35 bucks

both SmartMedia and xD PictureCard and USB 2.0
Price from $(US) 15 up.
