MBP SD card reader also read SDHC cards?

[tardman91]

I would think the answer would be yes, but all the info I find on Apple's website and the search results I browsed through on the formums only mention SD cards. No mention of SDHC. My old computer only read regular SD cards, which was a real bummer. I have a SDHC card for my camera, and am hoping the new Macbook Pro I'm going to buy can read the cards.
Thanks!

The standard was officially available around 2006, but there might have been some "draft" products before that. The D40 went on the market I think a few months after the SDHC standard was published.
