Which SD card for Mio 168 ?

[ENNEFF]

Hi everyone, this is my first post.



Some advice would be much appreciated : I am awaiting delivery of a Mitac Mio 168 and have TT5 ready and waiting.

I was planning to upgrade to a bigger SD card (1GB?) so that I could fire all the european maps on here as well.

Questions....will a 1GB card be big enough to accomodate the TT5 and the euro maps ?

and.......

Does it matter which make of SD card I go for ? I have a cheapo one from expansys.co.uk in my digi camera which works fine. Will this be OK in the Mio or would I be better investing in a Sandisk or similar....will a cheap card slow the whole thing down whilst in operation ?

Many thanks,

Neil

I tried my 2GB SD card (Peak 2GB Extreme 120x) HERE from my digi camera in my Mio168 with problems at all, (just for fun) I even loaded on to it TT3.07, TT5.1, Navigon 4.2 & 5.1 and all worked fine, also on the card I put Top Gun the movie and that played fine as well, with a couple of other things on it including CheckPOInt and POI-Warner plus sound files, poi's etc the card showed 1743MB used.

It's now back in the camera, but I use 1 GB Lexar cards in both the Mio168 and Medion 95000 which work fine as well.
