As I mentioned in anothner thread, you can get a Sandisk 16gb micro sdhc card for around $30 through ebay. All you need is a cheap micro-mini adapter for it to work.

I don't know about recommending, but I got my card from this guy:

http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/spirit...rmrsZ1QQ_fromZ

Interestingly, he advertised it as a card for cell phones. What do I care--I got 14.83gb extra memory:)

Try to fill it see what'd happen. You only hit to problems until you try to fill it up.
I still can't buy my cards from ebay!

I'll try to fill the card to its capacity starting now. Will report back.

Indeed I was able to copy 14.83gb worth of stuff to the card. Afterward I took the card out of the adapter to take a look. Something must have happened when I put the card-adapter assembly back: it disappeared from the file manager. Right now I am trying different insertion techniques to see if I can bring it back. Stay tuned...

Weirdest thing in the world. I went to sleep after several unsucessful attempts. When I woke up this morning, the card showed up in file manager again! BTW I tested some of the movies that I copied, all played fine.

FWIW, if you click on the seller's name, you will see that the guy has 100% feedback from 1458 transactions. If you choose to do business with him, don't forget to buy an adapter somewhere: it is not included.

congrats!
play the last-in to see there is no problem.
It seems you have a good card. A modified one would not past 8G! or maybe even 4G !

lol. I've seen cards that were 1gb and had the bios hacked to read 8gb. The part that was a hoot was that they were selling these back before 8gb was even on the market.

Too bad I deleted the bloated temp folder on the card after the copying test. Will report back if any problems occur. Meanwhile, all the audio and video files seem to work.
