What is the largest memory card anyone has managed to install in the N770?

From my brief research, it appears that there is a 2GB limit on the memory cards, not because the kernel cannot support more, but because they only make them up to 2GB.

However, a google search has produced

which appears to be a manufacturere somewhere in China. They claim 4GB for the mobile MMC.

Has anyone managed to buy memory in this size?
Bigger?

Thanks

2Gb is the limit for a 770 running the the 2006 OS.

2gb is the limit because currently there are no larger cards. 4GB cards conforming to MMC 4.1 standard should work too when they become available.

High capacity mmc cards conforming to MMC 4.2 (see the HC logo here http://www.mmca.org/home) won't work without patched kernel (same compatibility issue like SDHC vs SD cards). It is trivial to backport support for HC cards from n800 kernel back to N770 one. I already tried it but have no HC cards for testing.
