WOWSERS! talk about a high speed memory card deal!
March 20th, 2007 by ConnieOk – this may be a lot of enabling, but I will add in some education with it about choosing a memory card for your camera. Before Christmas I purchased a new camera that can take 3.5 photos per minute and I learned that not all memory cards are equal. Did you know that they have different writing speeds? In other words some are better for continuous shooting (which I LOVE! but that’s for another time).
I just found this at Amazon: A 2 gig memory card at a GREAT price and it’s a high speed one: Write/Read Performance: 9MB/sec, 10MB/sec (the others only write/read at 3 MB/sec). And this one also has allows avoids the need for a card reader. Check this out: This ground-breaking card gives you the capability to connect your SD card directly into a USB port by transforming into a USB adapter, via our unique hinged cover, eliminating the need for any readers to offload content to a PC.

Very very cool idea, You can this week at Best Buy get the reg Ultra 2 gig for 35.00. But this looks pretty cool to me. Thanks
Just got two of ‘em
Thanks for the tip…I had bought the bestbuy ones and they worked in my camera, but not in my memory reader. I have a thing about not plugging the camera into the computer, but that is the only way I can get them to read.
