Many macs come with a built-in SD reader, so you probably won't need to by a USB one. All iMac and Macbook Pro models have the SD reader. I'm not sure about the plastic Macbook, and the Mini doesn't have it.

However, if you get an SD card reader with a USB port -- about $20 at any computer/electronics store -- then it will work just fine. You won't have a HumanWare Companion, but you can still copy files.
