Hacking Any find a 16gb Card above Class 2?

[newyears1978]

I have searched and searched and cannot for the life of me find anything or if I do..the site looks severely shady and untrustworthy.

Can anyone point me somewhere?

The only one I can find is the SanDisk 16GB....but it's a class 2.

Sorry dood.

Guess I will stick to an 8...8's probably plenty anyways.. =)

If I remember correctly, the 16gb class 6's aren't going to be sold until March of this year. I can't remember the source, but Google will agree with me if asked.

Yah I just found that after posting...well at least as for a Toshiba card.

Better stick to a 8gb or two..

I've been waiting for the Toshiba 16GB MicroSD Class 6 card (SD-F16G) since I heard about it in the beginning of December.

I've found conflicting information on it. One article says that the SD-F16G will be shipped in January 2009, but another article says that it will be produced in April 2009. So apparently it will be shipped before it's produced.

I haven't found any info on it coming out in March.

This link says the following:

The demand of high capacity memory card continues to increase and Toshiba, one of the major memory card manufacturer has just unveiled a new plan to add 16GB high performance Micro SDHC card to its product lines, making it the current largest capacity Micro SDHC memory card in the world.

SDHC is a revised standard that is capable of supporting at least 2GB as compared to ordinary SD format. The new series of SDHC card is claimed to be compliant with SD version 2.00 standard and what makes it more prevailing is it will be adhered to class 6 which has superfast read/write speed, with up to 20MBps write speed for shorter files transfer time. Besides the 16GB micro SDHC, the Japanese company also offers 8GB micro SDHC cards for those that don’t really need such a high capacity for normal usage. These series of new memory cards will definitely bring benefits for any digital products including mobile phones, digital camera and any portable devices that require large external memory storage with low latency.

The micro SDHC will be mass produced by end of this year with the first shipment expected in January 2009. No pricing has been announced yet but don’t expect it to be cheap since they are targeted for high end users that focus on performance.
