Yes, class 4 will be sufficient, I found a decent deal on a class six, which would be a bit faster.. but it seems the it is much easier to find the class 4's

It is OK. I have a class 4 in my 8100 BlackBerry. I upgraded (upgrade in size, downgrade in speed) from a 4GB class 6 card to the 8GB class 4 and I could tell the difference when doing my initial transfer of 6GBs. The class 4, 8GB, card was easily 25% of the speed of my class 6, 4GB, card. Once you get that initial transfer out of the way though, it's virtually unnoticeable.

yea cause i found some at frys for 20 buck... store pick up so no ship =)

I think i might have to grab a new MicroSD, i bought a 4gb on Amazon for $5. Then i read a post here about classes, i didn't know they had different classes so i went and looked up the model number and it turns out its a class 2! I feel dumb, i am in the IT field and didn't know they classed these things!

Not bad..
I just found that Radio Shack sells the sandisk 8gb class 4 for $25.. I think they sale the 16gb for about $75..

I paid $35 for my 8gb class 6, but its A-Data not Sandisk.. Personally, I do not know if the brand makes any difference..

I just ordered a 4gb class 6 for like $17.75 shipped! Amazon has a pretty decent selection of MicroSD cards...its not Sandisk though.

I don't know if you guys already know, but Zipzoomfly has the A-DATA 8 gig Class 6 MicroSDHC for 25.99 plus (7.28 shipping) = 33.27 total.

It's the best deal I've found for a 8 gig class 6 thus far. They also have bill-me-later as a payment option.

When I ordered mine, it said "limited quantities - 20 left". You guys may want to jump on that ASAP. :)

hi all

so I guess im kind of a loser because I pre ordered a G1 this last weekend. most people here are in the "I cant wait till the 22nd" group and im the guy in the back of the line now.. oh well.

I have a couple of questions about micro sd. lots has changed as I have not bought a new phone in 2 years and then the 1gb micro sd for my dash was .. well lots more than it is now:) but lots of things have changed sense then. soo.

1) how much micro sd memory will the G1 support? I have heard 8 and 16.. will this be true on the day of release?

2) I see lots of talk about class rating with reguard to micro sd.. can someone explain the differences?

3) I bought a 4gb micro sd card for like 15 bucks a few weeks a go. when I tried to read it on my vista and xp machines they all but locked up. I was told that I needed a high capacity reader? if I get a 8gb card for the G1 and I want to take out the card and pop it into my computer( which I do alot becasue I find it easyer than syncing) will I need a high capacity card reader?

thanks for your time
peace
