what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

It looks like very hard to find a high capacity miniSDHC card (for N810) comparing to standard SDHC one (for N800). I found an 8G:

$27 + $7 shipping

Does the future of miniSDHC look like of RS-MMC?

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

They dropped $3.03, I would back up on a daily basis.

I just purchased a Sandisk 8GB micro w/ adapter from Amazon for $37 incl $8.20 in shipping.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

I purchased the same one last week off amazon for 25+4.99 amazon prime shipping. There is no reason to purchase miniSD over micro.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

I didn't even bother trying to find a MiniSD card in 8gb capacity. Since everything else I have is either SD or MicroSD, I just got an adapter for Mini to MicroSD and used that instead. Besides, you can get an 8gb or 16gb MicroSD one heck of a lot easier and cheaper than MiniSD.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

I disagree, there have been a number of posts about incompatibility with different micro2mini adapters. I hope mine works.
However there have been problems noted with the 8gb patriot.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

I'm using the Patriot 8 Gb mini with no problems. Where have you seen a 16 Gb micro SDHC card?

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

I said the same thing, there is no ghost, there is no ghost.... bing, I lost ALL my data. I shipped it back, they shipped me another new and shiny one. There is no ghost, there is no ghost,... bing, I lost all my data, the second time. They sent me the 2nd replacement, now I am looking at it, dont know what to do with it :-|

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

I'm using the Patriot 8gb. No problems. Never seen anything over 8gb in miniSD... and I look often.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

My 8gb is a Sandisk.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

Just received my Kingston 8G after 2 week. I did not know they are in HK!

Let's wait and see how this card holds up.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

I jumped on that Amazon deal as well for my N810.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

I emailed Kingston on this as it wasn't on their web site. They said they don't make an 8Gb miniSD. The largest is 1Gb. So it's either not Kinston (most likely) or not 8gb.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

Finding anything above 2gb in MiniSD is nearly impossible. Hence why I went with MicroSD and an adapter.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

OR BOTH! lol!

HAHA i have to agree - look at the picture of the packaging - the package says 8gb but the card inside the package clearly says 1gb. This has DODGEY written all over it - also the 8 on the package is a different font and shade of blue. I really cant believe some of the dodgey dealings out there

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

HAHAH and in the pictures of the card.... the crystal clear 8 photoshopped onto the card next to the blurry GB hahahaha... sorry i can't stop laughing


AHHA the page title! "Show goods's picture" hahahahha, I wouldn't trust these guys with a dead cat

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

I ordered an item from focalprice.com just want to see how this shop is. I ordered a Kingston CF 50X 4G, I received it in 10 days, and I popped it into my Canon, sure it reads 4 G. My first purchase from them is satisfactory, so far.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

It seems funny with this card for sure and I cannot figure out why yet.

I formatted it and it said it had 8088 x 1M.

I cloned the OS in the 2nd partition and left 7G for vfat. I did copy 5G of music in there too.
However, if I booted from flash then I can write to it otherwise I can't.

If it is not 8G they did a good magic on it. I haven't found any bad mp3 file yet.

:confused:

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

yeah, i'd be pretty sure it would be 8gb - they couldnt get away with that.... however, its not hard to print 'Kingston' on to the cards - i've bought OEM cards in Japan that look exactly like the Panasonic ones only without 'Panasonic' printed on them.... although i've seen other manufacturers use this style before too - Kingston used to use it and just put a sticker on the bottom half.....

something like this http://www.cell.com.au/catalog/images/SD_Card_2GB.jpg

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

I'm not so sure about that even I haven't found bad files yet. It is extremely slow (may be 1-bit transfer?)

Do they have embedded firmware in those cards? If they do they can alter and fake anything they like but it's funny to think people would not try to design good things but only try to fake good things real well.

That's the world we are living now. sad. and I'd not buy anything from them anymore for sure after learning Kingston does not make 4g mini.

@bun: I am not so sure about the 4G CF either! I have one from them !

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

FYI Newegg do 'eg saver' shipping for one card for $3.99. So total shipped is $31.

This is maybe not a kingston ????????

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

That's because they make 4gb miniSDHC, NOT miniSD

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

I've 3 Kingston 4GB miniSDHC.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

I rec'd it, from
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...N15GP&v=glance

note that the picture has an arrow in the upper right hand corner the one I got has a circle with a 4 inside.

And it seems to work fine.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

According to the web site posted by gemniii42 it is likely genuine. I bought three of these from Meritline and they have been fine.

The guy at Kingston said the following about the Focalprice 8gb card:
"The miniSD card that this vendor has displayed on their website is actually a 1GB miniSD card. Kingston does not have a 1GB miniSD card because this product has become discontinued."

Somewhat contradictory I think.

Strangely I could not find any miniSD/SDHC cards with the search I did on their site. This page appeared to show all their 'mobile' cards:
http://www.kingston.com/flash/village/mobile.asp

If you look for price info on the 4gb miniSDHC card you get the following:

We're sorry The part you selected, , is not attached to any particular system. It's possible that the part has been discontinued or the part number you entered was typed in incorrectly.

So who knows?

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

Meritline is offering an 8Gb microSDHC for $27.99 shipped. If you have a micro to mini adapter then this is possibly the best 8Gb price today.

http://www.meritline.com/kingston-8g...er-class4.html

DealExtreme have a micro to mini adapter for $1.13 shipped. (be aware that it takes a couple of weeks or more to recieve items from them)

You might also consider their USB to coax plug for charging N810:

And their micro USB to std USB cable:

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

I too had a heck of a time finding that page, they are probably discontinued, that happens when I buy stuff.

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

Yeah, and dfinch found an 8gb minisd. That's odd honestly, because it wasn't long after I got the n810 (a couple months ago) that I went looking and all I ever found was 2gb maximum in a minisd format. I couldn't find a single sliver of MiniSD SDHC anything. And believe me, I looked.

But since a lot of my stuff was already running on either SD or MicroSD, and the n810 was the only device I had that requried MiniSD, I decided that it wasn't worth having a card around that only worked in one device. So I got a Micro to MiniSD adapter and just called it good. Especially since I could get 8gb MicroSD SDHC cards pretty readily.

Speaking of which, I need to locate a couple 16gb and 32gb MicroSD cards too. ^_^;;

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
 

Here at amazon germany seems to be a 8gb minisd by Hama:

Re: what is the best price/capacity for over 8G miniSDHC you have so far?
