microSD is 2 GB and below.
microSDHC is between 4 and 32 GB.
microSDXC is 64 GB and up.

So it means I can only go upto to 64GB for my N800 -- I am a bit disappointed :-) Would n900 be modified to support microSDXC?

I think it requires both hardware and software changes (as did microSD to microSDHC), so I doubt it. There a bit of a question over general Linux support for SDXC anyway, as the filesystem used is proprietary and patented. I guess Nokia could do a licensed closed-source implementation though.

Can't say for certain.. but its pretty unlikely.. it also is a fairly long way off. However, if we get USB Host working.. you can have up to 2TB with an external harddrive :P

A-Data 8gb class 6 microsd card costs around 26 $ in ebay, and they advertise life-time warranty in A-Data's web site.
I can vouch for A-Data's quality - except that I was using the full SDHC, not the micro version, so perhaps the plasticky look won't be present.

Thanks for all the feedback, now I can order a microSDHC card knowing my N900 can use it.

i have an a-data 4gb class 6 microsd and it is super fast... about 26MB/sec writes in my card reader. Been using it for a couple years and no problems. Hopefully they have maintained that level of quality.

I have a transcend 8gb microsd and it is garbage, everything becomes corrupt no matter what device I use it on. It is useless.

Also beware of no-name cards that claim to be high speed, they are usually lies...

I've got my eyes on a 4gb card from Dane-Elec. My experience with Dane-Elec is that they are not expensive and perform well.
