Looked at the online manual for the USB1.1 CF adapter. Couple of interesting notes that apply to comments in this thread:

1. When you run some applications which put heavy load on CPU such as MP3 player, data transfer rate may get slow or the performance of the applications may get poor.

Looks like cageyjames is probably right. Also,

2. Storage devices such as hard disks don't run with the CFU1U.

Reading elsewhere, what they mean by mass storage are USB Flash drives. Not terribly useful since you have to give up your CF slot to get this.
