Simple question: I am not sure whether the reader can be used with the Mac directly. I have to assume yes as I realize that there exist adaptors from the iPod type connector to the regular firewire one. Does this make any sense ?

the point of the media reader is so that you can take your ipod with you on trips and store all of your digital photos on their when you run out of memory card space, instead of lugging around a notebook everywhere.
i don't see why you would really want to connect the reader to your mac.

You are assuming that it works via Firewire. There are a lot more that the 6 pins you need for firewire on the dock connector. There is a chance that the reader talks with the iPod using something other that Firewire.

Nope, it is not an assumption at all.
It is indeed Firewire; check the specs on the Belkin site.
