Guest dodgybob Posted November 23, 2002 Report Share Posted November 23, 2002 The SPV takes SD/MMC cards from popular manufacturers... all cards should work properly... SD (Secure Digital) cards are usually faster and more expensive... There have also been rumours of SD cards having digital security (hence the name) to prevent piracy on MP3's and other media...? Any info on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted November 23, 2002 Report Share Posted November 23, 2002 They do, but only if you choose to use it. I have a 64MB MMC in my SPV now, filled with MP3s... Sweet! 8) P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dougal Posted November 24, 2002 Report Share Posted November 24, 2002 i just ordered 2 (one for myself one for my mate) 135 ukp each from www.digitaldepot.co.uk cheapest i could find after hours of searching the contacts on the mm cards look very different to the sd contacts, also the sd cards have a write protect switch on them (how useful????)

Guest Paul [MVP] Posted November 24, 2002 Report Share Posted November 24, 2002 135ukp each for what size? SD or MMC? P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bjambean Posted November 25, 2002 Report Share Posted November 25, 2002 I would guess he means the 256 SD cards not a bad price I would recommend sd definately! They are capable of 4* the speed of the MMC cards I have found a 128mb sd card for £53! They are £129 in PC World!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mark Posted November 25, 2002 Report Share Posted November 25, 2002 I've just searched around too... Amazon.com have 128mb SD cards for $64.99 but they won't ship to the uk :D 7Dayshop is the cheapest i've found so far for uk, £54. I've just ordered one...

Guest Third_of_Five Posted November 29, 2002 Report Share Posted November 29, 2002 Dabs.com, Scan.co.uk I hear also supposed to carry them. All prices Ive seen so far are around the £50 mark for the 128mb version. Beware with 7dayshop, they take a long time to complete your order. About 10 days it will take from online order to delivery. Pretty poor in this day and age. I won't have my SD card before I have to decide if I am to send my SPV back!! They are in Guernsey which is why it takes so long.

That aside its still wicked tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dickeyboy Posted December 7, 2002 Report Share Posted December 7, 2002 I order the 64mb card from 7day Shop last Sunday (01/12) for £34.95. I also paid for the fast delivery so it arrived on Thursday morning. I have got about 25 songs on it. I converted them from 128/160kbps MP3's to 80Kbps wma files. I should say that most of the songs are average length and there are about four 8 minute longs tracks so I could have probably got a bit more on it. I have found that 64k gives reasonable quality but if you have songs with a lot of bass on them then they can distort a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gunslinger Posted December 7, 2002 Report Share Posted December 7, 2002 I picked up my 128MB SD card for about £43 inc Vat and Shipping Through ebay. It takes about a week to come from the states. The seller was topdot7 and you can pay through credit/debit card via paypal and billpoint. These are the cheapest i could find. They are the SanDisk Make. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wahblow Posted December 17, 2002 Report Share Posted December 17, 2002 do you need to copy any files over when you swap SD cards, also do you need to power off first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rog Posted December 17, 2002 Report Share Posted December 17, 2002 do you need to copy any files over when you swap SD cards? Depends...Do you have files you need on it? IE have you installed applications to your card? If so you'll need to copy them (and the file structure they are in) to retain functionality. also do you need to power off first? Nope = hot pluggable! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest madu Posted December 18, 2002 Report Share Posted December 18, 2002 Surely transfer via the cradle is so f***g slow!!! I'd like to get that 256MB + PC card writer (for mostly all memcards) from valuemedia. Pretty sure it's been mentioned, but can't be bothered to check - for those of you who can't be bothered either, there you go: http://www.valuemedia.co.uk/secure_digital.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BigLewiD Posted December 19, 2002 Report Share Posted December 19, 2002 On the memory cards can you store pictures and ringtones to use on the phone itself? and if so, how do you use them? How do you store and use mp3's? can someone please help me? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
