(ie. brands/size)

-Thanx!
It could be (see http://intr.overt.org/blog/?p=53, in the replies) that only SDHC cards are affected by the "killcard-bug", so if you stay with non-SDHC cards (max 2GB, although several 4GB versions also work), you might be in the clear.

Or not. With the new firmware, you take your chances. Nokia doesn't say anything and, as far as I know, isn't doing anything either.

Aren't they a swell company?
