Chad/All,
  From experience (I have the Canon Digital Rebel) I
can say that plugging the camera won't be as simple as
plugging in the CFCard into a CFCard reader and then
into you USB port as a mass storage device.  The Canon
requires a bunch of drivers and special software even
on the Windows box I copy stuff to.

Cheers.
