Guest Paul [MVP] Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 How about the MoDaCo Shop in this post? http://www.modaco.com/viewtopic.php?t=113009 P
Guest LarsDK Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 Does any of those shops ship cards to Denmark?
Guest simonbratt99 Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 You will have to check with them, sorry, but most do international orders.
Guest Shop @ MoDaCo Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 We are more than happy to ship to Denmark and the rest of Europe even USA, we would have to pass on the carriage/delivery costs for deliverys outside of the UK and Ireland, sorry :wink: we will update the shop during the next couple to include shipping into Europe etc. Delivery charges into Europe etc will be around £5.00 other destinations will be updated on the shop directly :)
Guest steve_smith Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 Hi all, Just a recommendation for the Kingmax cards that EBuyer are selling. Ordered a 512Mb one last week, and it arrived this morning in a blister pack complete with a Mini SD - standard SD converter. Very happy so far (with the exception that I didn't realise it came with the converter, so had already ordered one from elsewhere). The 512Mb cards are much more expensive than the 256Mb. But since you have to switch the phone off and remove the battery every time you want to switch cards, I thought the bigger capacity was a wise investment. Card seems to work fine in the phone, and am busily converting my collection of Southpark episodes in to WMV for watching on the train :) Tried one episode, and it works great in full screen mode! Only one small problem with using the cards for video. In Windows Media player, I can't seem to find a way to advance a little way in to a movie (eg. move say half way through a 30 minute clip). I only seem to be able to jump an entire movie file or music file at once. Any ideas? Steve.
Guest simonbratt99 Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 steve, What are you using to convert movie to the phone, is it easy and how long does it take? Simon
Guest steve_smith Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 What are you using to convert movie to the phone, is it easy and how long does it take? Starting off with DivX encoded AVI file. Using Windows Media Encoder (free download from Microsoft). Fairly easy once you've got the hang of it, and takes about 10 to 15 minutes to do a 30 minute episode, and results in a file of about 20Mb. I actually intended to use the files on my PocketPC (screen size of 320x240), so they are probably actually a little bit bigger than they need to be for the Smartphone. If all this sounds a bit complicated, I know there is a software package available (from Handango I think) which will take a DVD and produce a WMV file (of a size of your choice) with the minimum of mouse clicking :wink: Can't remember what it's called, something like DVD to Smartphone. Don't know how good it is, because I've never used it, but I think there is a trial version. Hope this helps, Steve.
Guest simonbratt99 Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 nice one, ive seen that dvd to smartphone software, think it might be worth a go.
Guest Marko31 Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 Thx for theses links : i'm adding one for UE residents ... Sandisk 256MO 51.36€ + 8€ for delivrery http://www.digit-photo.com/produits.php?&r...t=25&debut=50#0
Guest simonbratt99 Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 is it worth making this 'sticky'?
Guest JampoTT Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 I should have a small number of 512Mb cards available EARLY NEXT WEEK, for those who don't want to a) pay Ebuyer £100 :) order from the USA I will be prepared to ship to the EU at cost as well.
Guest chucky.egg Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 @JampoTT How much for the 512 cards?
Guest JampoTT Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 @JampoTT How much for the 512 cards? I have an order coming from overseas, so exact price depends whether or not (and how much!) I get stung for import duty... But I'm expecting them to be around £80-£85 all inclusive, or maybe down to £75 if the duty isn't sky high (seems random on stuff I've ordered before...)
Guest simonbratt99 Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 sounds good matey, do you know what make?
Guest JampoTT Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 I requested Toshiba cards, so lets see what comes... Neither of my 2 previous "normal" suppliers are yet stocking the cards (I used to regularly trade digital memory on Ebay and organise group buys for friends etc, so have a few contacts in the trade) which is a shame...
Guest sponge Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 I just checked out their prices and Ebuyer no longer offer free delivery on the 256mb mini Secure Digital card. They do on all the others. :x
Guest m4rcus Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 I wouldn't get anything from ebuyer. I purchased a 256 card from them when they were displaying it at £21.59 inc delivery! (great link from coolsmartphone) But it now seems that the 5 day delivery that they were telling me was rubbish. They are now quoting 7-10 to them, then more on to me!! So my advice is... DONT SHOP AT EBUYER!!! I think they made a mistake as now they are trying to sell it for £29+ inc delivery...
Guest simonbratt99 Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 Its still free del on many flash mem in ebuyer just not on MiniSD, prolly just dont need to, as thier stock is in the negative direction. I have used ebuyer for mannnyyy things, work and home, always have a good experience. You will always find someone with a bad experience of any company. Last thing i bought was a Fiji S5000 camera for 209, then the prices went up to about 219, they go up and down, sometimes daily, so keep an eye out, ive always got an item if its been in stock. Truble with out of stock items the del date, cant be garenteed, for anyone.
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 eBuyer have been fine for me, until you need to return something, then they are a NIGHTMARE! I guess their cheap prices on PC bits particularly are at the expense of service... P
Guest simonbratt99 Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 i have returned the odd item, i admit, it could be better, but i cant resist a bargin, and lets face it, ebuyer is one of the best bargin hunt sites.
Guest fultonius Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 Once you've put WMV's onto your memory card, how can you get them to open? I'm prob missing something really obvious.......
Guest spark-x Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 Any one have Any idea when the 1gb cards will come out? cheers, sx :)
