CES 2008: Holy 12-Gbyte microSD Cards, Batman!

Looking to continue what's turning out to be an annual tradition of driving a leadership stake into the ground at the Consumer Electronics Show, SanDisk today announced that it has managed to squeeze 12 Gbytes onto a microSD card. The announcement comes at a time when SanDisk's competitors are just bringing 4-Gbyte cards to the market. Already, SanDisk sells an 8-Gbyte microSD card for $129.99. SanDisk also announced its nearly indestructible Titanium USB drive. Between its ability to take a good deal of punishment and the way SanDisk lets users tie it directly to an online storage service, the 4GB thumbdrive is designed as a low-friction, highly fault-tolerant solution for backing up important data from your hard drive. TechWebTV's David Berlind gets the details from SanDisk's senior director of marketing Michael Romero.

kiselomlqkorosa, I have a Nokia 6120 Classic & I checked it with a 8GB micro SDHC memory card. Works perfect. No lag, either. And I think that if a phone can support Micro SDHC, then technically speaking, it can support up to any size. Have you tried the Nokia 6290 with 8GB micro SDHC? It might work off the record, you know! Then again, just my guess, bro. God bless & t.c

sd are officially recomending microsdhc cards up to 8gb to use with nokia 6120 classic why the fuck the recomended microsdhc for nokia 6290 is 4gb it doesnt make sense i mean if your phone can run microsdhc it doesnt matter what size it is right
