Maximum MiniSD capacity I can use with Wizard

Hi All,
I have a 512 MiniSD and i want to upgrade. So i wonder What is the maximum capacity Mini SD I can use smoothly with my Wizard. I don't want something to slow the device or make it freeze.
thanks

my 2gb miniSD works fine...£33 too

i am using a 2 gig and it works good

thanks for the reply, do you recomend any specific brand or they are all the same

ATP are supposed to be good--waterproof and claim to be faster than other miniSD cards. I read a few posts here about them a few months ago and bought one--haven't had any problems. I don't have another miniSD card to compare the read/write speed, and I don't make a habit of giving my Wizard a bath so I can't vouch for the waterproofness either...

i bought a sandisk 2 gb. works great for me.

Has anyone try a 4gb or more? I'm thinking of buying a 4gb sd.

There are no 4GB miniSDs yet; right now, the biggest available is 2GB.

dude there is NO 4gb CARDS for minisd. If so....link me and prove me wrong.

4Gb miniSD being advertised...but are reg SD...
I ordered and received one....after a pretty easy search and finding several.....I was unsure when ordered and, sure enough, now have yet another regular SD card for one of the cameras, etc.
I'm sure they are coming out - and possibly some actually already have them, but at $115 a shot for a flakey, poorly advertised seller (mine was a previously good company, CellMem.com - which I had bought other things from over the last few years - but they sent a regular SD.) (No, I hate sending things back, so I just can store even more sitlls on my camcorder or digicam I don't use enough....)
Hell, none of the physical stores even had the 2Gb mini when I looked and only started having the 2Gb full sized a month back.
Give it six months and we'll be swimming in 150X 4Gb mini's for $80....and the rumors *then* will be the coming 250X 8 or 16....assuming that's feasible, of course - six months later if not....
Now I need to go get a 2Gb and a handful of cheapy 128's, 256's or 512's for ROM backup and "'xperimentin'".....and replace this DINOSAUR 1Gb I have from Circuit City (which you couldn't get 18 months ago... ) )

OEM Brand 2gig MiniSD here works great too and at $34, works real good. 4gigs comming soon I am sure.
Just wish the developers of WM5 software made better use of the storage.

Transcend 2GB (80x / SLC) works great just out of the box (no format needed)!
Same Transcend 512MB (80x / SLC)...

See? There ya are! The price is incredible too - $45ish
bought singly (much less than price for 1Gb in even cheaper stores).....things change so fast....even the mfg doesn't list those or even the 2Gb!
http://www.adata.com.tw/adata_en/product_detail.php?ProductNo=106
....notice they also didn't even change the labels on the package all the way - hope it isn't a "Photoshop New Offering" hehehe - the pic still shows 60X, not 150X...
Has anyone used these guys before themselves? The names are so familiar with so many of these...
I guess I'll give one of these a try - maybe throw in one of their cheapy 4Gb ipodoids too.....
....why oh WHY! couldn't I have just stuck with buying cars and guns and parts and accessories for those! - now back into electronics!!!!

2GB Memory Cards

It seems I just fried parts of my 2GB miniSD I got about a year ago from ebay for about £30ish which was pretty cheap at the time. However it was slow as hell, and in low temperatures (about -25C) ran so slowly it was close to useless.
I dont like the idea of going for a 4GB as there does seem to be a large element in luck if these will work - but I guess (correct me if i am wrong) that there will soon be a ROM accommodating the newer format miniSDs. (Ahem, Mr Faria?)
However - until then I am still in need of a new card and sticking to a reliable old format at 2GB seems to make most sense - but with greater speed than my decomposing cheapo.
The one that looked best initially was the 2GB Utlra II from Sandisk, due to its claimed good transfer rates (10 and 9 meg/s IIRC) - however, I noticed...
http://www.mymemory.co.uk/search
... who I have had loads of good kit from previously, do their own with 20/9 rates and for £10.99 with a 6% discount via www.quidco.co.uk and the tax does not go to Tony Bliars lot, as they are off shore (although get reduced tax for > £18 - so you now can see the reasons for their price structure).
Their postage is £4 but I am due a few other things too, including USB memory pens that work as media in my car radio, and a 4GB Sandisk Titanium U3 as i filled the 1GB one from christmas in no time, and they make writing CDs redundant, so is likely to cancel out with the quidco discount.
Has anyone any suggestions for fast RELIABLE cards - preferably branded as I guess they would be more likely to stick with the same factory.
I look like a Sandisk fan - having mentioned their kit twice - but my first phone with a memory card back in 2001 went through three of their cards, before a cheapo lasted until the phones features were too old to keep using it (but it still works - a SL45).
So any suggestions and thinks in advance?

htc have said that the hardware in most (if not all) of their phones is limited to slower read/write speed cards. ie the card may work in your pc, but the htc hardware is 'not good enough' to read it. the thread is on this forum somewhere...
try this thread
there are no branded (sandisk/kingston etc) cards

What Memory should I use on Kaiser?

Hi guys, I am trying to buy a "SanDisk Mobile Premier 2GB Micro SD high speed", I believe it is fit for Kaiser, right?

Yep that'll work fine; be wary of buying on eBay as many tend to be fakes. Buy from a trusted reseller. I have got a 6GB for less than £40 delivered.

If your in the US, you can get great deals @ newegg.com
I purchased my 2gb microsd for 19.99, and 3 day ups is standard shipping.(costs like 3-5 dollars, on some cases its free shipping)

it supports cards over 2GB (Micro SDHC); i have a 2GB Micro SD for now, waiting for a 10-15GB model of the SDHC's to come out so i can dump all my music on it and ditch my iPod

dunno where ive got this from but i think/heard/got the vibe that the kaiser can only support up to 8gb sdhc?

that's great, I was think about a 2GB one but seems like it is not enough? Does Kaiser a good music/video player?

i get maybe 45 minutes out of a charge on the iPod anymore; it will permanently reside in my car soon enough. Dont get me wrong, the iPod is great and all, but pocket space is at a premium for me, and between wallet, cell/PPC, keys, iPod, ciggs, lighter, and PassCards my pockets are stuffed. If 8GB is the most the Kaiser will support, then so be it.

Yes we all need a slim pocket...
By the way here comes a new question, I found that all micro SDHC are come with CLASS 2, that means 9mb/s on reading and 5mb/s on writing... a little bit slow? It that necessay to buy a MicroSD Ultra II ?

up to 32 GB sd card in ATT Tilt
DLD

if you have a 1-2GB micro SD card now, i'd wait a while unless your dying for memory space; they are bound to up the read/write speeds and lower the prices. I teach digital photography, a few years back read/write speeds of memory cards mattered a LOT, nowadays most D-SLR's have a huge cache so a superfast memory card isnt such a big deal, and the prices are fairly decent. My bet is in 6 months an 8 gig Ultra II Micro SDHC shouldnt be more than $60.
thats great to hear RacerX10; even 10-15GB should effectively mean i dont need to drag my laptop and iPod everywhere; 32GB means pretty much ALL my media with me.

SDHC spec is up to 32gig, today the max you can actually buy is 6gig. By the time you can actually buy a 32gig, we'll be using different phones like TyTN III

6GB Micro SDHCs are available - Sandisk seems to be th eonly real supplier at this moment. I'm sure others will have theirs out soon too. I just bought one from www.mydigitaldiscount.com in the US. Got it with no issues, and I've filled 4.5GB of it with music and video.
8GB MicroSDHCs are targeted for release probably around the end of the year. Again, Sandisk will be the first supplier.
No one has even announced an official "coming soon" statement for anything bigger than 8GB yet.

Kaiser is a real good video player(Using TCPMP), but it also depends on the format.
My favorite, and In my opinion, the best format is .m4v (You may need a special convertor for that)
Other formats are either 2 big, or has really choppy playback.
Also you should increase your font and glyph cache to 32768 (makes things more responsive/ smoother)

the SDA SD Card Association has never quite said the 'maximum' size of a Micro SD; there is a theoretical maximum of 32 GB, hence the 'limit' at the moment, which IMO means merely a new 'type' of SD card in a year or two. as for hardware that reads them, there likely is a maximum size they can read.
Currently Samsung has an 8GB Micro SD in development, Kingston and Sandisk are sure to be right behind anyways. besides, its just a memory card; i have piles of 128MB Memory Stick Pro Duo's that i bought for my Sony S710a when it first came out, and 128MB was still a fairly sizeable card for a cell phone; now we're talking 6-8+ gigs...

That's great advise, I used to play .AVI with TCPMP and it works fine but haven't try to increase the cache, due to my Vario I is limited by its memory

6 GB microSD in Tilt

Even though they aren't on the market, AT&T claims the tilt or the Kaiser will support up to a 32 GB microSD card. I'm not so sure if I believe this.
I am looking to upgrade from my 1GB to a 4 or 6 GB card. Has anyone tried a 6 GB card? If so, success / failure ?

the SDHC goes up to 32 gig - 6 is the biggest available - i read a review on the Sandisk 6g card - very positive review - watch where you buy (like ebay) as there are bad knockoffs floating around

I've got a TyTNII with a 6GB SAN Disk SDHC.
Runs fine. Have 3GB of 1:50,000 Memory-Maps + 1GB of other stuff (CPL6 etc).

Works good here.. One odd issue was that I had to use the included MicroSD adapter stick. I tried another one that was a little older and it reported the media as write-protected. Maybe because it's the super high capacity?

major porn storage

isn't there an issue with the sandisc cards with getting them in and out of the slot and ill fitting or something?

I am using a SanDisk 6gb sdhc card in my kaiser with no issues on insert/remove or the storage side of things. In the UK carphone warehouse have them in stock in their high street shops. I paid £49.99 which was about a tenner over the net price but as we were in the middle of a postal strike at the time I didn't really mind!

Using a 6GB ScanDisc no problems what soever.
There are some other really good threads on this subject all over the Forums.

over at the ATT forum, people have been saying that the microSD card does a very good job as a potentially dangerous projectile in the tilt... lol.. people have been saying that thier cards fly up to 15 feet when being removed.

What is the best 6gb card for the Vario III

Guys,
What is the best 6gb card for the Vario III?
I'm thinking of sterking clear of sandisk after the reports about it being a dodgy fit in the unit itself...
So come on - sh and tell I am still waiting to lay my mney down!!
lr

I doubt you will find many people who have tried all of the above, so they cant give a good vote based on experience.
That said, I have the SanDisk one and it works great. Doesn't get stuck.

I have the Sandisk. Works fine. NOthing wrong with it at all...

i thought there were fitting issues with it???

i do not have it till now, but i prefer sandisk than the kingstone.

I also have the Sandisk and it's been OK so far.

sandisk
sandisk has no fit issues on the tilt variety

thx guys - so wheres best plce to get one? for uk...

dont you think there is something wrong with the poll, sandisk are the only company to make 6gb micro sdhc, i dont other companies will follow, it's not a very common size in memory storage, talking of which, adata has just release th fastest micro sdhc on the market with the first 4gb class 6, claiming a read speed of 20mb/s and write speed of at least 6mb/s.
I also got the 6gb, got it dead on arrival, the card was corrupted, nothing i did will get it back to normal, just waiting for sandisk uk to send a replacement.
kms

yeah prolly is wrong but i didn know any better!

I have a sandisk 6gb and it works flawlessly in my ATT Tilt

I bought mine from amazon.co.uk for 33.78 GBP. Expansys has them for 41 quid.. I didnt look anywhere else.

i did the same as you now!! yay!
thx

I bought a Sandisk 4GB, and unfortunately - after a couple of days light use that seemed okay - it died completely when I tried to fill up with music. Windows Media Player got to about 11% on the sync, and then just sat there. When I eventually cancelled it all, I found the kaiser wasn't seeing a card there at all anymore - and when I tried it in the USB flash drive the PC just hung trying to read it. It seems completely dead.
I don't suppose anyone has any tips on reviving one of these?
On a side note, I did find it wasn't a great fit - it felt quite rough getting it in and out, as if it was rubbing a little more than it should have been - but this was the 4GB version, not the 6GB.
