From previous reviews I think its a good one.
I even think its a SLC type mini sd (mostly Samsung flash chip inside), which is preferrable to MLC (mostly Toshiba flash chip inside):
Longer lifetime
Faster
Less power consumption
Better reliability in some devices (very often HTC phones, not pda phones, are mentioned here)

Main drawback of SLC is price: Its more expensive.
It is a pity most shops/eBayers dont mention whether its SLC / MLC or not.
I <think> the majority of fast cards is SLC but havent found any proof of that.
Sandisk seems to be MLC as is Kingston.

Only shop that does this reliable is Mobymemory.com They sell the 2GB SLC for 59 GBP.
