Trying to figure out what to get SD or lte.

Quote from: "rocky"yea but you dont need them at the same time like I have one that works on my supercard lite, supercard mini SD, supercard SD and M3 mini SD and I dont use them all at the same time and if I do I always have my mini SD

This is going off topic, but let's just finish this off.
In your case it might be ok, but I have 2 DS's.

My original DS and Supercard SD (soon to be my sisters), which needs the normal SD card.
A microSD for my supercard lite.
A miniSD for my phone, to store pictures and music.

I will actually just need 2 cards a micro and mini SD. Since they have totally different purposes, it's a little easier to have a dedicated card for each device. And at $25 for a 1gb mini SD, the marginal benefit of owning a 2nd card outweighs the marginal cost of orgaizing the data on one single card and the chance of leaving the card in the wrong device when you need it. An example would be: you're on a date with a cute girl, you want to take a few pictures with you phonecam and you noticed you forgot the memory card in your DS, and thanks to Nokia you only have enough built in memory for 5 pictures.
Similar things have happened to me before, so I know it'll happen again.
So I'll pay the extra $25 to have a dedicated miniSD for my phone.

Once again, sorry for going off topic.

Lol, I was just thinking...

If you put a microSD in a miniSD converter then put the miniSD in a SD converter! LOL, you buy a microSD but you are safe as if the format that you need changes you'll have all three!

Hmmm, I wonder if its possible?

Is this possible? I wonder if the coverters are too big as I've seen some of the SanDisk with metal on them. LOL, anyone care to try?

NP, BTW glad to help!

If you cut the tab off the sc lite will it fit inside a phat ds?

FifthE1ement · August 08, 2006, 05:51:27 AM

I would say no since it has a lip on the end and is too small.

I have used my miniSD-to-SD with my SD-to-CF on my palm alot when I want to transfer files from the miniSD to my other SD card. I have never seen a microSD to miniSD converter though. Anyone have a link, or maybe a brand that makes it?

onekelly · August 08, 2006, 01:36:16 PM

thanks fifth, I was wondering if it was possible to be used in a phat and a lite.
