Very good. And nicely organized too. Good job!

Anyone know of a good class 6 8GB microSDHC?

 

[Diffusion]

Love newegg. =)

Customer support is great and the prices are so cheap.

Yeah, but I think a chart format would probably work better. Maybe in the future ^.^

At the moment, the cheapest ones I saw were Sandisks at around $60. Not much of deal imo.

The Adata is made in Taiwan. Damn it everything is on newegg.... Can't wait for Newegg canada!

Thanks, updated. And are you serious? Canadian Newegg? *happy dance!*

That is a great card though, better than a 4 GB SD HC card by sandisk that I returned because it was too slow (and more than twice the price of the A-Data).

 

[Jundeezy]

Would that $12 4gb be good for the Supercard?

 

[IOwnAndPwnU]

Looks good. Class 6 A-Data for a good price.

Serious! Canada Newegg! Woot!

microSDs are cheap at Amazon I got a 4Gb for 18$


Here.

Ebay is also cheap if you want to wait 21 days....

I don't know about Transcend, but it's $9.40 at Amazon right now. 4GB Class 6 MicroSDHC. Click.

EDIT: Oh gawd it pulled a fast one, it's $16~ now.

Patriots seem to be getting rather good/popular now... And they're decently priced too. Are they rebrands?

Edit: BTW! I do have the 2GB Patriot 3 in 1 adapter set and it works great! No slowdowns! Great choice IMO. Went from a 1 GB Japanese Kingston to the Patriot.

 

[9thSage]

That is what I use it actually. It works pretty great (I see the difference on homebrew too, such as NeoDS and Quake 2 DS, and also, for one thing, the Supercard menu is a bit more speedy).

the Supercard OS reports the speed as x22...that cruddy Sandisk card was like x4.

 

[Jundeezy]

the shipping for that card is 7 dollars. that's 12.75 + 7 = 19.75.

Picked up a Patriot 2GB the other week for $6.99 (on sale) at NCIX.com

 

[PanzerWF]

This chart should definitely be helpful to those Americans..... anyways check out newegg.ca

Nooo, all my hard earned cash will be spent on the awesome stuff at Newegg. I hope they don't try to inflate the prices to rip off Canadians.

Thanks for the Amazon link, updated. Unless there's a really good buy it now option on eBay, I think it's better to just buy it off an online retailer.

Did you manage to get one? That would have been a pretty hot deal. Too bad they seemed to notice their pricing error lol.

Perhaps the Philippines aren't the cheapest to ship to?

Yeah, I've seen some good stuff on NCIX. I don't check it very often, but if anyone happens upon any sales, please post them too.

buy.com has Kingston 2GB microSD for $6.99 w/ free shipping now. LINK

Kingston is no longer made in Japan!!!

i just got a kingston 2GB microSD - and its clearly labeled made in Taiwan.
Just a heads up - not sure how this is going to affect the random access speed. So far i haven't noticed a real difference. Even with my Japanese Kingston - i noticed some lag in Zelda, and Lunar Knights.

maybe i need to pay more attention to the memory Class

 

[gosp]

Yes I do need more than 4 GB.

There are good Buy It Now options. Here's a search link.

You need to scroll down a little cause all the card reader are at the top.

Why would you need more than 4GB???!!???? There's abosultey no need for 8GB, only if you wanna pack it with 6 full-length movies, 6 albums and a few games....

WOW THAT IS CHEAP! Too bad I already ordered from Amazon

 

[skagamer]

Don't forget about the 4GB Transcend Class 6 at NewEgg. This card doesn't have the problems that plague the A-Data and it costs less!!
