Hacking Kingston 2GB MicroSDs

[Skye]

Hey all, has anyone bought one of the new Kingston 2GB MicroSDs yet? I'm considering buying one from here, but I just want to know for sure that Castlevania: PoR works okay.

Cheers.

Hardly anybody has one. Somebody on this forum said they had one from Taiwan. Most likely the rest are like that too. Just wait for his word

They're cheaper here
The 1GB Japanese Kingstons are made by Toshiba but last time I checked, Toshiba don't make a 2GB Micro SD card so it's probably made by another manufacturer. I spoke to one supplier a few months ago and they said they were made in Taiwan. If you do buy one, let us know how it is.

Are these new?

When did they come out with 2GB models?

Fairly new, yes. I think they were officially released at the end of February - Mid March

You've personally tested this? Or are you just reading this off the wiki?
I'd be surprised if it has the same performance as a 1gig Japanese Kingston
