Integral Smart Media 128 MB

Advantages: n
Disadvantages: n

...The description of this item is virtually self-explanatory, and as such, doesn’t require a terribly long review.. It’s a 128 Mb smart media card – ie it is a memory card for earlier Olympus digital cameras, using the ‘smart media’ specification. Virtually indistinguishable from virtually every other Smart media card of a similar capacity, it can be used in Olympus branded cameras, or independently as a ‘removable media’ with an appropriate reader. Of course, you should be able to use it in other brands of cameras as well, but one is forced to ask the question ‘why’? As with most ‘original equipment Manufacturer’ kit, it attracts a price premium, the street price for a bog standard 128Mb card is around twenty bucks on Ebay (plus a nominal charge for postage) – the Olympus version commands a price approximately double that...

...My latest phone is an Orange SPV C550. The prerequisite to buying this phone was that it had to have a memory card inside to save off MP3's and photos. The card I got with this was a Sandisk Mini SD 128MB card. When you take the card out you realise just how small it is. I would say its just a bit smaller than a standard postage stamp. I was amazed at how the size of memory has reduced over recent years. The small physical size also has the added benefit that you can store it almost anywhere and not worry about it taking up space.
