Everything posted in this thread to date is now on the wiki, I think.

If anyone else has a card that's not listed and you think worth a mention (either for good or bad), please add it to the wiki page. And, if possible stick a more wordy comment about it on this thread.
goto: Post25;

Hope it's of some use...

Hello

Almost all of us use a memory card in our devices, right? I'm looking for a replacement. I had a look through the wiki and it turned up vrtually nothing. There were a few TMO threads but everything was all quite disjointed, it's quite hard to extract information from multiple places. So I added a bit to the N900 Accessories page of the wiki.

Please post here (or directly on the wiki page) about your card. I will have a trawl through this thread in a few weeks in attempt to fill out the tables on that wiki page. My aim is to get a good general picture of what's good and what's rubbish, in the way of memory cards. No promises to put every nuanced card on there.
- I just put mine on to put something in the table; it will probably come off when there's a decent list.

Please make you post brief so it can be collated easily.
Info required

If your card performs to expectation, for Good cards:
Size, Class, Brand/Mfr, Vendor, Country, Date Bought (Approx)

Or, if you've had an unfortumate time, for Bad cards:
Size, Class, Brand/Mfr, Problem

I am particularly interested to know about fast, high-capacity cards (i.e. class 10/UHS & 32GB). It seems like there have been some epic wins and melt downs in this area. These cards cost from 65GBP so it's probably info we should all share.

Maybe there's a uniform test that could be applied - say time transfering EasyDebian's compressed file to/from? Just a thought.

If there are any howlers in that wiki section, by all means address them yourself or post the error here for me to alter in due course. NB. I have had no influence over the top few sections.

- as many may notice, despite being a poll-worthy question I think we're all a little fed up with such things at the moment!

Thank you very much in advance for all your help...
