Verdict

The Kingston TravelLite is a lot bigger than the Hama 6in1. Unlike the Hama 6in1 it only has one removable cap. To insert a card you have to flip over a small cover.
Unfortunately I had some difficulties removing some SD cards. They seemed to get stuck so I had to use some force to remove them.

The performance is excellent. It's just as fast as the Hama 6in1. However it doesn't support SDHC cards so the Hama 6in1 is probably a better choice if you want a cheap but fast SD card reader.
