Hey guys, I got a SanDisk 512mb miniSD already, but it's about to fill up, and wanted to get recommendations on a 2GB miniSD card, which one's the best to get? Fastest? etc, for a Cingular 8125.. Thanks!

IMHO, avoid SanDisk. I have had several of their cards (different formats) go bad. I now have a TopRam 2gb card in my 8125. I bought it off ebay. Before you think TopRam is some fly-by-night company, they use Samsung RAM chips in their cards. It is noticeably faster than the SanDisk 1gb I previously used. You notice the speed difference when taking and viewing pictures using the card.
Also, I had a problem with the SanDisk where the 8125 would not "see" the card when it was re-inserted. I would have to soft-reset to fix. I have not had this problem with the TopRam.

I purchased a 2GB U-TEK MINI SD card on ebay for $75 plus $7 shipping. It also uses Samsung components and claims 150x speed. I can't compare it to any other cards since I don't own any other miniSD cards. But it seems to work great, and it was a very good price. No complaints so far.

I am a consultant to sandisk and they provided me with the following information that might be of help.

"SanDisk recently broke one major ring of counterfeit products in China
being sold on eBay. Today we believe up to 50% of products sold in the
"used" market to be counterfeit. We recommend only buying products from
authorized dealers. In Asia all products have a hologram on the retail
package and products that are bought without packaging or without a
hologram are suspect."

I bought a 2GB mobymemory card and it's been fine. A mate (with the same phone) bought a 2GB SanDisk and has had no problems either. When we've compared acces speeds, they seem the same.
