Default Anyone sourced a 16GB microSD class 4 or 6?

Looking for a 16GB microSD for the Hero.

Anyone sourced a class 4 or 6? or indeed, have you used a class 2 and happy with it?

many thanks all

I have a class 2 16gb in my G1.

Apps2SD and Swap runs fine (Using JacHeroSki Hero rom).

I don't see what the class thing is all about, applications run as speedy as if they were installed on the device itself.

Only used the 2GB card Orange bundle with the phone, and am experiencing a bit of sluggish perfromance on the home screen occasionally - someones said that this is solved by a faster card but will have to wait and see - got one on order.

That link you have posted says 'Class 2' in the write up but the picture is 'Class 4'.

I looked at that earlier and that discrepancy put me off ordering it.

Currently have a 4GB in my TytynII and that is full of sat nav progs Fancied the 16GB so I could load up with satnav and music.

I may just go for the 8GB class 6

Thanks for the HU.

I don't know anything about microSD cards, and I am looking for the same thing.

Would this card work?

Yes it would. WE HAVE A WINNER, 1 class 6 16gb.

These are still quite expensive though, I'd be tempted just to stick with an 8gb class 6 (which I got for £11 GBP) and when I run out of space, then move up to the 16gb
