sd card????

[upengineer04]

What is the best sd memory card for my rx3115. Some are advertised as 40x or 60x faster. I am mainly just going to put music and small data files on the card.................thanks

Right now the prices are up a little bit (they move almost on a daily basis). It won't mean more than about $7-$10 to you. If you'r ein no rush, you could wait a bit to see when they come down (they aren't going up as a long term trend)

Your best value is the 1 Gb cards. I've seen them as low as $49 for the standard speed ones (they are around $60 right now).

For a few dollars more, you can get the higher speed ones. If you are going to use it for music or small files, you won't notice a difference when it's in your PDA, but if you put it in a USB2 reader, you will clearly see the speed difference. It really adds up if you're loading up a 1 Gb card with lots of music (I also load movies -- a 1 Gb card will hold at least four full-length movies).

If I were buying one today, this is what I'd get:

Under $73 for a 1 Gb high speed SD card including shipping... Not too bad. I've had Transcend SD cards for about six months without issue.
