Advantages: Great Performance, Awesome Durabilty and VERY cheap at retailers. Disadvantages: Write Speeds could be better but as still above the standards set by most competitors.
...Kingston Technology Company is an American producer of memory products.They are located in California but has other offices in Asia and Europe.
I had in the past bought 3 of these cards but actually not for any fault of the device but because of the relibility of this card.
With the size of a quarter of a normal SD card this MicroSD is perfect for all kinds of media. Along with write speeds of 6.5 MB/sec and a read speed of 8.8Mb/Sec the card is more than ready for many tasks.
The durability of the card is incredible however if the golden strips are put into contact with a humans fingers or constantly touched then the memory card can face issues.
Furthermore is common in many SD and Micro SD media and is seen as a general hardware problem. Kingston is such a confident company of their product that it includes a lifetime warranty!...

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.

Just how many mp3 players are needed in this world? I ask you? Well come on I'll tell you then. Only one. The ipod. This machine is really too small. 128 megs of expensive sony memory (£40 average) is barely enough to record yourself ranting about how... more
