[Magdalen] Photostick?

[cady soukup]

Looks as though a photostick would work, but it's quite expensive for
what you get. A limited advantage for you is that the storage is not
in the cloud but on the USB drive (that's all it is, plus some
high-dollar app software).

Lots of other, less expensive options, depending on your comfort
levels & willingness to learn.
