I bought this one yesterday. I don't think it's class 4 'cus I get around 20MB/s when testing in HD Tach. According to some users on Newegg, the Transcend Class 6 gets 16MB/s in HD Tach. Copying files using TeraCopy, I get ~10+ MB/s

Hey what's up! I'm new to the forums. This is my cherry pop post! I Just bought a kingston 8 gig from newegg last week for $15. They have the best deals and fastest shipping, but...It was DOA out the box. I never had problems with kingston memory cards before. I sent it back for a replacement. I should hopefully have a working one in a few days for my G1 that I'm getting Tuesday!!!! My contract will be over and hello new world!!!!

Anyone else try these?
The price seems too cheap.

Flash cards are cheap nowadays. 15-20 dollars for an 8GB is normal price.

/I'm not talking about BestBuy or CircuitCity, they are electronic stores for dummies.

Welcome to AC. I'm sure newegg will replace it. My old SD card dies after 4 months. They let me RMA the card and refund my money. The new one costs $30 less than what I paid. Newegg is superior in every way.

Thanks for the welcome! Yeah like I said, kingston usually have great products and newegg is definitely the place to order from. They are sending a new one. Gigs are insanely cheap now. It's crazy! That goodness the G1 has expandable memory.

IMO 8 gig would be a bit much for a "casual user"...if you just need something for a handful of songs and to store pictures...even a 2-4GB would suffice.

...although, if we get the ability to store market programs to the SD card...8GB would definitely be a good investment.

(plus the way prices have come down on flash storage...8GB is probably the best deal right now...wait another 6 months and 16GB will be down under $40.00)

Thanks for your help, never had a "smart" phone before.
