|
|
Hi all,
Can I call on your experiences...?
I am just about to purchase a new card for my iPAQ to use with TTN3, but am unsure which is the best type (or even if the iPAQ will take anything other than the SD type).
Anyone gots any pointers? I'm looking to purchase 512MB
Cheers

I don't know if branded makes are any better than budget ones, I have my suspicions about exorbitant price justifications, but go have a look on amazon.co.uk electronics section for sd cards, I got a 256 meg SD card there recently for £22, which I thought was outstanding. It works fine. Some may say other cards are faster, but I get no speed issues with mine. |

Hi Paul
There has been a lot written on this forum about problems with Sandisk cards and TomTom. i took Davids advice on the subject and always ask the retailer what panasonic made cards they sell (sometimes badged by other companies) and select those.

I've got a IPAQ 2210 which takes Compact Flash so I went down this route. Regardless of SD or CF www.valueflash.co.uk are very good.
