Will these 4Gb mini SD cards work?

[mindracing]

These (http://www.mobymemory.com/proddetail.asp?prod=miniSD%5F4096mb%5FMOBY%5F001) cards seem to be a good deal.

WIll a 4Gb card work OK in an Orange M3100?

No.

You need microSD (which used to be called Transflash i think).
That's MiniSD.. It's physically too big.

MyMemory in the UK do a 2GB one for 47.99

There are no microSD larger than 2GB available at the moment. 1GB is quite common.. 2GB is harder to find in the UK, and thats the best price i've found yet... I've ordered one but havent got it yet as i only got the M3100/Hermes last week.

Edit: Oh just to annoy me.. the site you were looking at is quite a bit cheaper for the 2GB microSD. lol

Is it advisable to stick to known brand names or does that not matter any more? Are there any problems in using a 2gb one as I've read about slowness with the 1gb ones?? TIA :D

Nope thats a MiniSD. Hermes uses a MicroSD. I recently bought a Sandisk 2GB MicroSD for $70 on EBAY. I use the Micro to put around 1.8gb of music and I notice no slow down. The rest of the memory I put around 4-5 games and I only notice in one game call 3D Air Hockey slow downs.
