Hey,

in Germany we get the Kaisers later :(
But if we get I want a big SD Card.
The 4GB is tested and works
How ist the 6GB Micro SD, in comes in two weeks to the German market and the lowest price is 49 Euro (not much more than the 4GB).

Do you have experience, it works?

A User with a HTC Touch said it works with 6GB SDHD Cards.
Have any of who are a proud owner of a Kaiser a 6GB in use or tesed?

Thanks!

the official word on the tilt, the att locked verision of the kaiser, is that it supports up to a 32gb micro sd card. this comes straight from a htc lead training on the product in atlanta. i would say it would also be true for the unlocked version, sandisk was there and they demoed a 8gb on it, obviously 32 micros dont exsit yet

Got mine a few days ago, works fine. Currently 2 gig's free. When loading the card with a Sandisk MobileMate SD+ USB reader on my Vista PC the transfer rates are 8-9 MB/sec. which is pretty fast. My Sandisk UltraII CF Cards transfer at around 4MB/sec.

Not like it should surprise anyone any more, but I just got my Sandisk 6GB MicroSD card from mydigitaldiscount.com and it works like a charm. I loaded it with about 4 GB of music and video...

The card is a Class 4 SDHC card. I still haven't seen an answer to the question of "up to what class of card can the Kaiser handle?" I.e. if eventaully Class 8 cards become available, is it worth the money to step up to it? Cuz if the Kaiser can't handle that speed, its wasting money...Anyone know?

I would imagine all classes are compatible. Even if the Kaiser cannot make use of the C8 speed, if you need to transfer stuff faster, put it in a card reader and transfer using that, at least it will mean it would be quicker to get large amounts of data onto your kaiser.

I understand that. Clearly, I realize it would still work. But if I buy a C8 and I only use it at C4 speed, then it's somewhat pointless. Im willing to spend to get the fastest card I can that will still be worthwhile...

So to clarify, the Vario III can take cards like this one (http://www.bmcdigital.co.uk/catalog/view/6gb-sandisk-microsd-microsdhc-memory-card-) without any problems?

EDIT: I risked getting the Moby Memory (http://www.mobymemory.com/micro-SD.asp) one, guarenteed next day delivery, even with the postal strikes, should get here Friday.

Can confirm that the Sandisk (SDSDQ-6144 Class 4) with 6 GB works perfectly on the TyTN II.

But can anyone confirm if the new Sandisk (SDSDQR-8192) with 8 GB will also work ?
This microSD card will be available here in ~1 week.

P.S.
I can further confirm - as I just experimented - that in the imate Ultimate 8150 no card beyond 2 GB is even recognized !
I have no idea if it is a problem with a driver or the hardware limitation of the built-in card reader itself.

Well, after my 6gb Sandisk from Amazon working perfectly for the last week, I decided to transfer a few movies using the included card reader. Placed my card back in, and no card to be seen. Looked at the regedit fixes from way back using Search, saw settings were exactly what was talked about.Anyhow,looks like after all this time, still no official fix for Hermes missing storage card fix. Also followed advice, to drop the card back into the unit while power on. I do see the card now, however have the classic Storage Card (with a few folders), and now Storage Card2 with most of my files. If anyone has found a more recent,100% fix, wouldn't mind finding it. Can't stand the thought of going through this each time. I suppose the best thing might be to NEVER take out your card and use AS. But sure makes a nice difference, transferring directly from PC to reader. Does anyone see any problem in simply copying all files from Storage Card2 to Storage Card as a solution ? at least until I can find a permenant fix?

Does the AT&T Tilt support Micro SDHC memory cards? I found some specs say yes and others say no.

The Kaiser supports SDHC according to yigalk(and a lot of other reports I've read already.), he uses one:

"I'm already using the Sandisk 6GB Micro SDHC card in my KAISER and can asure everybody that It works properly."

From AT&T at: http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-phone-service/cell-phone-details/?device=AT%26T+Tilt(TM)&q_sku=sku1060009

"microSD expansion slot supports up to 32 GB* expandable memory
* The largest memory presently available on our site is 2 GB

HTC's website has no real info. Though someone could email them. I'm just gonna get the biggest microsdcd card I can find, and I'm not concerned that it won't work.

That's a lot more to pay for only two GB more than the 6GB card tho. 6GB's are in the $70 range currently. I just upgraded to 6GB due to TomTom maps maxing my 2GB card and now everything's wonderful again. By the time I max the addtl 4GB I would imagine the 8's will be lower priced...

Agreed. But, if you pay $70.00 now (plus a little more for s&h), and then upgrade to the 8GB (currently $119.00) in a year or so, and pay another $70.00 for that one plus shipping, then it adds up to more than what you would pay for the 8GB right now, and in the mean time you are missing out on an extra 2GB which represents a respectable 1/4 of your total capacity!

In Theory the SDHC system can be upgraded up to 32GB. So the TyTN II has to support up to 32GB.

That's another way of looking at it. ;) Me, I'll either ebay the 6gb or (more likely) sell it with the Tilt when I upgrade in '08 then get the 8GB (or whatever is mainstream then) card when the "Kaiser HD" (640X480 screen) hits in 2Q.

... just speculation on the next device but "you heard it here first" btw :)
