Now that you've picked up that sexy little bit of
Chocolate from Verizon, you're probably looking for a hefty storage option to load up
all some of your tunes, and luckily SanDisk has got you covered with its new 2GB microSD card. First to market with a two gig flavor of this type of card, SanDisk has given VZW a 60-day exclusive for selling it in the US, while the rest of the world should be able pick it up at any number of locations. Available immediately, this card -- with its 1,000 VCAST song capacity -- will set you back an even $100, and probably less if you can find one of the OEM versions that SanDisk also announced.

yes Evan I was always looking for something more. And sanddisk and transflash are constantly introducing high gb memory cards. This is very light in weight + it is really very helpful to my music player.
I found this link which i think will be very help to all

Would this work in an A920? Some People tell me it has a 512MB limit, some tell me it doesn't.
Very Nice...I just purchased a SanDisk Sansa e250 (2GB Flash Based Music Player)

This little guy uses the MicroSD for add on storage space. Will be a worthwhile upgrade when price comes down a bit on the MicroSD cards.
And to think that just two days ago I ordered a 1GB microSD card for my VX8300...
Well, $100 is a bit pricey anyway. I got the 1GB for $40 shipped, so I don't know if I'm prepared to spend that much. Maybe when they come out with the Ultra II card.
To fill this up you'd have to pay verizon $1999.
I barely use my 256MB card anyway. Of course, the E815 sucks as an MP3 player.
When all phones start using MicroSD as a standard, I might get a bigger one. For now, I just use it as a convenience for the video recorder and ringtone storage.
With such a high capacity on microSD, I wonder how long it'll be before we see digital cameras that use it.
Now, if only phone manufactuers could make a reliable interface to play music...
It's amazing how small these microSD cards are. I thought my cellphone's miniSD card was small, but these things just blow you away. I wish more devices/cameras would come with at least 512MB of storage built-in, if not then at least with a microSD slot.
I have the 512mb for my Motorola Razr V3x and its awesome, I already stored 22 movies in 3g mode.
i hope this means higher capacity mini SD cards (capped out at 2 gig when micro sd was capped at 1 gig)

2GB's in the size of a fingernail.. incredible. I have the 256mb card for my A950 and am happy with that, but this is impressive!
Anyone know if a MicroSD to MiniSD adapter exists? I have a phone that uses Mini, but know I will eventually upgrade to a Micro SD capable phone and would LOVE to invest in only one type of card.
Thoughts?

1 Gig TransFlash cards work with the a920. It's only a matter of time before someone reports a larger size working (or not).
Huck: Try ebay it looks like there are adapter sold there, I can't seem to find them anywhere else right now.

so, as the person with the e250, I have the e260 (shoulda gotten the 270 :-/ ), so this is sweet
with the potential release of the 8GB Sansa by SanDisk, this little puppy would bump it to 10 gigs . . . definitely sweetness in a flash player!
to taylor, heres a helpful link http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/10533.htm well be able to use the higher capacity microsds with minisd too. i heard they were going to around 8 gig range.. later on of course.
"First to market with a two gig flavor of this type of card..." Say Huh?!?!?
I guess the 2GB MicroSD I bought on Newegg for $65 back in May was just vaporware. Funny, 'cause it seems to work fine in my HTC 8125.
Mr. Guy, you bought a MINI sd card, not a MICRO sd card. they are two different formats. Unless you have one of these MICRO to MINI sd card adapters a MICRO sd will not fit in a 8125 as it has a MINI sd slot.
I had no idea they made those micro to mini adapters, very useful. I may have to sell all my minisd's and get one of these 2gb micro's.
When the e280 comes out plus the 2gb mp3 player; 10gb flash based mp3 player. AWESOME.
Has anyone tried to stick this card into a LG VX8300?
yes. it will definitely work on the LG vx 8300.
will this 2 gb card suit my samsung T-809? will this affect the phone in anyway ?
Will this 2GB card work in a Samsung SGH-t809 cellphone? I am currently using a 1GB without issue even though samsung's website says the maximum size is a 512MB card.
I bought a 2GB microSD card and tried it in my t809, but didnt have any luck. after looking around, it seems that no one has been able to get a 2gb to work in one. guess we're stuck at 1gb
Does anyone know if anything bigger than 512MB will work in the RAZR v3i iTunes version?
I heard these phones originally came with an OEM 512MB TransFlash, but it seems all the eBay vendors pillage the box and sell everything separately.
MicroSD IS TransFlash... and you can get 512MB for around $15 on Newegg.
Memory cards ranging from 512MB to 16GB are now available just to update the post a bit:)
i have a samsung u740 phone with micro sd capability. can i use a micro sd card as an mp3 player? if so, how????
I love my T-Mobile Shadow it supports up to a 4G Micro SD card with no problem. It is also a really good music player. It is lightweight and it does alot of cool things. I give it 5 stars.
