    Default For people using 2 GB cards!

    First off i'd like to say i know this has been covered before, and i know that many users use a 2GB card successfully. But buying an 2GB microSD is a big investment for me, and i'd just like to know if there are ABSOLUTELY ANY ADVERSE EFFECTS (such as hanging/freezing/slowing down)...

    Also, i may not be able to get my hands on a Sandisk card, will any other make also be compatable?

    Thanks!

    SanDisk cards (2gb) should work with no problems. I am using a 2gb Patriot card. As far as the 4gb cards, the A1200 cannot read those cards as it is SD 2.0 SDHC and will quite possible render the card useless and you have lost a lot of $$$. Stick with the 2gb for now.....

    is that an issue that can be resolved by flashing to a newer firmware?

    Using SDHC cards need to change the cardreader-unit and rewrite the kernel I think.

    The FAT16 filesystem used in the card is limited to 2GB.
