The 2GB models have just been released in the past month so, no, the prices will not drop for a while.

oh really lol, i thought they had been out for a while.

so do u think a 1GB will be good? im looking at scumm talkies and organize etc.

really i want an expandable mem solution next to my G6, but i like my GBA, i was thinkin m3 lite. is EZflash thing ne good?

the other half of the delimma is that i want a slot 1, so maybe cause most the GBA games i play are remakes, and SNES emulation is improving heaps so should i wait for a Acekard? ideas?

help me team

At least I haven't been able to fill up my 1GB A-Data card but when I was using my sucky 512mb kingston it was filled up very fast. If you have the patience you should wait for a while with those 2GB cards. In few months the prices might come down after more than two manufacturers have those 2GB cards out.

prices will go down when fakes hit the market

Ofcourse two one gigs are cheaper then a 2 gig! The cost of the hardware in a micro sd card is close to free

However, why even spend money on a 1 gig? I got a 512 MB for $14. Thats enogh space.

Are you trolling? Kid's asking about 2 gig cards, not asking people to tell him to use a solution that doesn't meet his needs.

Gotta agree with you kalibar, not the most helpful post.
I'm pretty keen to buy a 2GB Micro-SD but am waiting for availability to rise and prices to fall.
I currently have two 1GB and a 512MB Micro-SD already. I love having extra space to fill though!

too many transflash cards = them falling out of your pocket like pennies

Not if you have enough flashcarts to keep them in

Then why get a flash cart w/ removable media?!?

Well you show me where I can buy an EZ4 Lite deluxe with built in 1 GB+ memory and I'll buy that!
But anyway, who said anything about not buying carts with built in memory?

I'm going pokemon style on them, gotta catch 'em all!
I have An EZ4-lite original +1 GB TF, EZ4 lite Deluxe +1 GB TF, DS-Link + 512 MB TF and M3 Mini + 2 GB Mini-SD.
Want to get: G6 Lite (new 2 GB model), DS-Xtreme, Ewin Mini, AceKard (if/when it comes out) and I guess a Supercard of some sort (not a big fan of SC).
