like the spv, e100 and e200 before i, i doubt theres a maximum size, when 1gb mini sd becomes available i'm pretty sure it will work without problems.

...and that's where I saw the one I wanted! Sorry- was out at the Bourne Supremacy so no reply.

Glad to know it works! :P Might pick one up myself...

This phone is getting better by the second. Just need to figure out how to do plug ins etc and then I am sorted. Difficult to do these things when you have a Mac... :shock:

As the card is formatted using FAT32 (same as XP (non-NTFS)) the theoretical maximum size is 2 to the power of 32 bytes which is approximately 4.3TB (which is why you can fit large hard drives to your PCs). I haven't found an SD card quite that big as yet................. :wink: :wink:

It's probably right, but they don't have any (SanDisk haven't started shipping yet)

Where does it say that?

Anyway, I'd rather get a 1gig than a smaller one... but depends on how long I have to wait.

I have ordered a 1GB mini SD from computerwebstore.co.uk for £62, and it was in stock, unlike Ebuyer ones. Try searching on kelkoo, loads of places beat ebuyer prices.

I have a 1GB card - no problems here (as long as we disregard my taste in music)

I take it you transfer files by using a card reader? Activesync takes an age to fill up the 16mb card I got with the phone, so I can only imagine how slow a gig would be.

I've just checked computerwebstore and they're saying 3-10 days for stock?

Whilst xlshop aren't giving stock details on the sandisk 1GB minisd's, indicating that either;

(a) they have them in stock

or

(:D they don't show stock details

:?:

I've had my 1Gb on pre-order from GMKBatteries since frickin Feb 10th :?:

Me thinks I'll be cancelling that order and switching to some of the NOW cheaper places.

Yes I use a card reader, prior to that I accessed the phone via a "mobile device" tab in Explorer. It didn't seem to take too long. I assembled all the files and folder structure I wanted to copy over, in a folder on my PC first, then I copied this folder over as one "job lot". Took a while, but I could leave the PC to it.

Hey guys and gals, check out >>>> Online Memory <<<< I got a 512 mini SD card for 30 quids, plus the adaptor so it's readable by external drives and stuff. They are doing free delivery at the moment for things over 30 quid. It was the cheapest place i could find!

What is the maximum size of the miniSD card that can be used in the C500?  I would like to use a 512mb card.

Cheers.

I have a 512Mb in mine full of MP3's etc for sometime. Got mine from eBay for £21. Shipped in from Japan. No problems

Cheers
