Hi guys

N80 on order from Orange, should be with me tomorrow but I'd like to know which miniSD card to go for.

I fancy a 2GB card and was looking at the Sandisk cards on ebay for @ £30 but I am not sure if they're compatible. Some posts say yes and others say no. If the 2Gb cards are hit and miss I might have to plump for a 1GB instead.

Please post what you have had success with.

Cheers

Andy

Hi,
I bought a 2gb mini SD card from here

http://www.mymemory.co.uk/Mini-SD

i got the MyMemory 2GB 133X PRO Mini SD

it is theoretically the fastest type available (or almost anyway)

seems to work fine, although i have nothing to compare it with. i never even used the 128 meg card that came with the phone.

edit,
see my later post about this memory

Thanks Rob

I'd spotted that generic Mymemory card before but was unsure whether it would be OK. I have bought from www.mymemory.co.uk before because their prices are so competitive.

I will definately put this one to the top of the list for price and speed.

personally I wouldn't buy a memory card off ebay again, every one I have bought in the past off ebay has been dodgy or unreliable...stick to an online established dealer like digimem or whoever. You'll get a card that works for a little bit more. My sandisk 1gb card bought from digimem works a treat

I bought a 2Gb one from here

WARNING!!

I bought my SanDisk 1GB miniSD card of eBay for £25 and it was shipped from Hong Kong. The card works on my PC but when I connect it to the N80 it says 'memory card corrupted.' I've phoned SanDisk and they checked the serial number and said it was a fake and thats why it doesnt work in the phone. The card has correct SanDisk markings and a hologram at the back with serial starting with DAA.. SanDisk said the serial should start with BB.


Check this link out from eBay forum that talks a little more about it..

i've got one of those 2gb sandisk cards off ebay, works perfect in my n80, i did get the 'memory card corrupted' message once but only because i reinserted it before pressing 'ok' and i just removed it and put it back in and all was fine, and if its a fake its a very good one

Just an update on the card i bought.

twice now it has stopped being detected by the phone. I had to reboot the phone to get it to be detected again. I didn't take it out and put it back in, just rebooted.
maybe it's a phone problem? I have the latest firmware.

so maybe don't get the memory i got, just to be on the safe side.

Also have the Sandisk 2Gb but my card doesn't work at all. The phone keeps displaying "no memory card" I do have the latest firmware. Bad luck.

I have the Scandisk 2Gig card purchased from Ebay not a fake and have seen no problems so far

how much did you pay for yours?

i have a ora 2gb from www.expansys.co.uk it works fine but windows doesnt detect it with my card reader

Hi,

This is where I bought mine from eBay and it doesnt work on the N80 but does on the PC.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=9125971571&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSA:UK:31

Beware of this seller as SanDisk is a fake.

whats the cheapest 1gb card anyone has bought?

Hi Guys,

I've found a site that sells 2gb card for £32.99, this seems like a really good price but does anyone know the compatability of the Datawrite card with the N80?

Here's the link to the site:

Cheers

I can vouch for the SVP.co.uk memory card - I ordered a 2Gb Datawrite card for £32.99 and it has been faultless.
