Toshiba unveils 16GB microSDHC card of its own
SanDisk was first out of the gate with a 16GB microSDHC card, but Toshiba's just two months behind with the announcement of its iteration. Slated for mass production in January of 2009, the capacious SD-C16G should provide plenty of room for your EMF albums and that Rage Against the Machine discography. In related news, Tosh also introduced the soon-to-come SD-F16G and SD-F08G, 16GB / 8GB Class 6 SDHC cards that should handle even the quickest of cameras when they launch over the next few months. No prices to chew on just yet, but we'd wager they'll be competitive.
















Imagine all the porn you can fit on these!
I would imagine 16 gb worth.
I would imagine 15.259 GB worth.
I would imagine the unimaginable.
you can any personal data like movies and music so more.
I can any personal data like movies and music so more? Sweet!
What is this, 1984?
Since when did they talk like this is '84?
I was talking about the George Orwell novel. I hope someone here can share the reference with me... :(
Yah, I can also games and porn and more!
++good
Hell, I would have been delighted to just be able to any music.
Makes you wonder why Netbooks even need a hard drive / SSD. Just give 'em a internal SD slot or two and some of those class 6 SD cards :D
Now if only the iPhone had a microSD slot!
And yes, I did mention the iPhone, but at least I didn't say, "These r a ripoff of an Apple product!", like iEye would have.
c'mon iEye...say something :))
Uh... is it just me, but does that say speed class 2 for the 16GB microSDHC card? kinda slow, n'est pas?
Err... did you miss this part? "Tosh also introduced the soon-to-come SD-F16G and SD-F08G, 16GB / 8GB Class 6 SDHC cards"
Yes, it is class 2, and soon there will be class 6.
I would prefer class 4 though, I have 2 Sandisk, one class 4 and one Ultra class 6, and although the Ultra costs 30% more it's only around 10-15% faster, while class 4 is 80% faster than class 2.
I love the "corrected" EMF album quantity. well played.
Those companies most likely already have 32gb or 64gb memory cards but they won't release it to the market because of that stupid political economy. They want to sell memory gradually and get as much money as they can :(
It makes me a saaaaaad panda :(
I've always been afraid that I would swallow a microSDHC card one day, due to the size and... my desire to eat data storage.
"Err... did you miss this part? "Tosh also introduced the soon-to-come SD-F16G and SD-F08G, 16GB / 8GB Class 6 SDHC cards"
What you didnt realize is that these class 6 cards are standard SD size, not micro.

before YOU go RTFA, read the next damn line!
---->SDHC
there was more to my comment, but the comment system ate it.
Basically, those second two are SDHC, however not microSDHC.
So I can finally store all my... ahem 'homebrew' on my DS flashcart...
They is tasty.
They only lack the write-protect switch from their parents, the SD card. Those write-protect switches are a delicacy around these parts. If it weren't for the fact that they are missing that delicious switch and the fact that SD is cheaper on my grocery bill (and more filling), I'd be eating microSD all week (instead of just every second friday).
That's good eatin'!
Meant to respond to "absinthe party"...
Happy eating.
