Hi,

Sandisk recently announced the release of a microSDXC card [1] and I'd like to know if the N900 cardreader is able to use such a card. I've read that it should be available from October this year.
I know the hardware specification is slightly different from SDHC and SDXC uses the crappy ExFat file system but I've heard rumors that some SDHC readers are already SDXC-capable even if not specified so. And I hope the same goes for some microSDHC readers, including the one in the N900. The file system could be changed anyway.

Frankly the Sandisk card doesn't look that appealing to me (64GB@30MB/s for $200+) but I think later cards might be useful. I'm not really interested in the capacity but if one day cards would be available that actually reach the ~100MB/s which the standard provides swapping could become unnoticeable and the precious internal storage of the N900 could be saved from unnecessary write accesses while still increasing speed.

So if somebody should be able to get hold of this or any other microSDXC card it would be very nice as a proof of concept to format it to ext2 and just check if the N900 can mount it, read and write data. And of course it would be nice to share the results here.

Thanks!
