My Computer

Default Mini Sd Card

Okay so after getting my XDA Mini S I realised I need some memory for it...badly.

I hate using 'syncing' software (it usually freezes or just doesn't recognise things properly when device is plugged in every piece of syncing software I've ever had has had problems) and honestly I'm not too bothered about that, I just want to be able to take photos on my PDA, store them on the memory card and use my memory card reader on my PC to transfer files back and forth etc.

I'm thinking 512MB should be enough, people at school tell me I should get 1GB (mainly people with PSP's as they think 1GB is a must for everything needing memory cards) but I'll only put a small amount of music on this thing (I have my iPod for music) and photos will be transfered to my PC asap so 1GB space is probably too much.

I've been searching around and am seeing 512MB MINI SD Cards for around £25, although some sites I've never heard of and one wouldn't take my type of debit card.

What I'm asking is:
Can you help me find MINI SD cards from a trusted online seller (retail shops are about 2x the amount as online shops, 256MB cards are about £30 in shops, online about £15) and preferably a memory card from a decent manufacturer, Kingston, Sandisk etc etc. I'm looking for 512MB preferably from a UK seller. It needs to have a MINI SD -> SD adapter so that I can use it in my memory card reader.

Was looking at this one, what do you reckon?

Many thanks in advance

I'm probably going to buy that memory card above today, does anyone have any experience with ByteStor? The price of £23.98 inc Adapter and Delivery is pretty good I think.

I decided to search a bit before I ordered with amazon and I found this site, the 1GB Sandisk miniSD cards on there are only £35 which is £15 cheaper than most places and up to £25 than others. Delivery is only £1.60 so I'm going to order from them tonight.

Got my memory card today and it's awesome. The adapter is very useful as it means you can use an internal memory card reader. For anyone looking for cheap 1GB miniSD cards that website is the place to go, I was weary (sp?) about buying from them as I'd never heard of them but ordered it late on Tuesday and it came this morning (only just used it, been at college all day...bah exams...)
