I saw an add in a magazine saying that there is a sale on 4GB micro SD cards. I was just wondering if anybody know whether this is compatible with a supercard lite. I think i read somewhere that supercard can only take up to 2GB, but maybe that's just my imagination...

The Supercard cannot handle the SDHC format, which is what most cards over 2 GB are.  I know there are some non-SDHC SD cards, but I don't think there are any for microSD.


Hi

Mine works, (regular SD card) and many 4gb (regular) SD cards aren't SDHC, though I know not the story with microSD's.

I believe the magazine has to say somewhere (read the small print) if it's SDHC, but I don't know for sure. You should try getting a magnify glass and look for the word SDHC, since it would be easy to miss something.

I am also very interested in the 4GB micro SD cards. Just out of curiosity, does SDHC not support FAT or something?

-edit:  This may be irrelevant information, but apparently someone found a piece of software that converts 4GB SD (not sure about micro) to FAT in this thread: http://www.scdev.org/forum/index.php?topic=10073.0   
It's cited in the third post on this page.
