Guest nedge2k Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 [teaser] Yes, I know, none of our beloved WM devices support SDHC as yet but hey, it's nice to know that when they do, Sandisk will be there with open arms... The 4GB SanDisk miniSDHC card will be able to provide the fast speed and large capacity required to support increasingly popular but storage-intensive applications such as digital imaging, music and video record/playback functions as well as mobile television and videogames. The 4GB capacity can store more than 2,000 high-resolution pictures, more than 1,000 digital songs or up to 8 hours of MPEG 4 video [/teaser] SanDisk is now sampling the new 4GB miniSD card to OEMs such as major phone manufacturers and mobile network operators (MNOs). Retail release of the card is planned for 2007. Though standard miniSD and miniSDHC cards look identical in size and shape, only SDHC-compatible products will be able to accept the new miniSDHC cards. Engineering samples will be available for evaluation, as mobile phone makers will need to upgrade the firmware in their handsets so that memory slots can support the new card. OEM pricing has not been determined yet. Based on the SD Association 2.0 specification, the new card is a member of the SDHC family. SDHC is the new designation for any SD or SD-based card that is larger than 2GB and adheres to the SD 2.00 specification, a completely new design that is required for cards and hosts to support 4GB to 32GB capacities. The specification was developed by the SD Association, an industry standards board, which also defined three speed classes for speed and performance capabilities. These cards adhere to the SD Speed Class 2 Rating specification which defines a minimum sustained transfer speed for SDHC cards.

Guest genaldar Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 I know my mpx220 couldn't handle a 2gb minisd but I'd still love to try this out :D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dr Who Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 But when can I expect a 4Gb MICRO-SD???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 I'm sure at least 1 WM device i've had DOES support SDHC. Or, at least, I found SDHC driver keys when rooting around the registry... :D P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Nubbing Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 So this 4 GB card I can buy on ebay here won't work on my mobile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 On the Hermes, there's a driver for SDH1: named 'SDHC', packed in there with the other SD drivers. Sounds promising. SDHC microSDs? :D If you want a peek yourself, point your registry editor at HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\SDHC. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gavin Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 So this 4 GB card I can buy on ebay here won't work on my mobile? No these are fake, something to do with hacking 2gb cards so that they show up as having 4gb space but in reality they will only take 2gb's worth of stuff. Thank god for these REAL 4gb cards. Bring it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dm251x Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 This might be totally naive, but is there any chance that (if the drivers work on the hermes) that they could be transferred and functional on a Tornado (qtek 8300)? On the Hermes, there's a driver for SDH1: named 'SDHC', packed in there with the other SD drivers. Sounds promising. SDHC microSDs? :rolleyes: If you want a peek yourself, point your registry editor at HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\SDHC. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
