Pretty Good except...
This mini SD card worked fine in my Audiovox SMT5600 as well as using it with the adapter in my Motorola MPx200.My Printer was able to read the card and scan to it (w/adapter) and I could also use it just fine as a removeable media format on XP.The only problem I encountered was when using the mini SD was when using the adapter and trying to increase the storage of my flash based MP3 player.For some reason Windows Media Player said that the disk was invalid.So I'm not sure if that was a WMP, MP3 or SD card thing but all in all it works pretty well. ...

Usage in a Zire31 PDA
I bought the Viking 256MB SD card for use with my Zire31 PDA. I have installed eReader on the card and use the card mainly to store eBooks and photos. So far I havn't had any major problem with the card. Occasionally (maybe once or twice a day) the PDA will stop detecting the card (not as bad as it sounds), but I can usually go back to the PDA main menu, select something else (the calculator, etc.), go back to the main menu and then select the Viking 256MB card and the PDA will then begin to detect the card again. If that doesn't work I simply eject the card and then push it back in. The above two methods have worked every time and it only takes a few seconds. I have never lost any data from the card. I don't know why this situation occurs but for the type of usage I'm using the card for and the low cost of the card I am still happy with my purchase. I didn't have any problem with delivery.

viking sd card
when I ordered this they said it would be in 6 to10 days
so far it has been 24 days

Costs less - works great
What can I say? I bought this 256MB secure digital card to expand the tiny 32MB memory on our digital camera. It was much cheaper than those I found at the local stores. It works great. I just plugged it into the camera slot and my camera can now take hundreds of pictures. No more running out of "film" and no more deleting shots because the camera's memory is full. ... Read more

How many pictures will it store?
How many pictures will it store?It is the most commonly asked question from digital camera enthusiast but usually the question that is the most difficult to get a straight answer about.Well, considering I worked in the memory industry for over 7 years I can help clarify this perplexing question and do so unbiased as I have since changed industries.

The SanDisk 128MB Memory Stick, like most 128MB cards, will store on average 142 pictures when used with a 2 megapixel camera, 106 images when used with a 3 megapixel camera,64 pictures when used with a 4 megapixel camera, 51 images when used with a 5 megapixel camera, and 40 pictures when used with a 6 megapixel camera.These numbers are based off the assumption that you are going to shoot your images at the highest quality JPEG setting available for the camera and understand that they are estimates and may be off by as much as 10 percent due to numerous factors including the complexity of the scene being shot and the compression algorithm used by your specific camera.

I truly hope this review was helpful to you in determining whether this card is the right capacity for your specific needs.

The best all purpose stick
I've got three of these and they work just as well as Sony's.I take pictures with my Sony on them but I use them instead of floppy disks.I put it in my reader at work, home, and at my mother's, and download programs from the internet directly to them, transfers files to them and use them the same way as floppys are use.I haven't used the floppy on any of the computers for the past year.Small as a stick of gum, can be packed in a wallet.Best item invented!

Nice product
I bought this product for use in my Sony Clie handheld computer. I was looking for a cheaper alternative to the Sony brand memory stick, and I am glad to say that this product has worked flawlessly over the past year.

I would buy a Sandisk product again.

Question
Can someone please tell me the difference between Memory Stick and Memory Stick Pro?

Two star because....
I haven't used it yet!!! The plastic packaging is ridiculous, wasteful and HAZARDOUS as I just managed to cut myself trying to open it.Seriously, what a waste of resources.I can't imagine the energy and waste used just for the packaging. Why go through the effort of marketing and sitting around a conference room discussing how cool it would be to package a MEMORY STICK with razor sharp plastic with a neat colorful cardboard backround just so it can be thrown away to forever stay on the face of this earth to injure another person!!!? ah!! For a MEMORY STICK? Gimme a break!! ... Read more

DO NOT BUY FROM AMAZON.COM
Better cards are available from other retailers - just check epinions.com - you will find a whole bunch for $19 or less. Also they deliver, while Amazon does not.The item has label "usually ships in 24 hours", but I have waited 5 (five !) days, and still it was not shipped. Do not buy this card, and check other place than Amazon. The Amazon stinks...

Fantastic card - unbeatable price
I bought this SimpleTech card in early 2003 and have had great results with it.I have shot over 34,000 pictures on it using my Canon PowerShot G3.I use it extensively with my Dell X5 PDA.For the last month, I have been using it in my new Nikon D70 (over 5000 pictures so far from that).I originally paid about $60 for this card.

The card has never failed me.I have given it extreme use.I also have a 256 MB Sandisk card (it failed me once, and I had it replaced under warranty) and a 256 MB Viking card.I had read a review that the Viking card may not be compatible with the G3, so I never used it in that camera.I used the Viking card only in my Canon Powershot S400.However I did use all three cards in my PDA and in the S400.I have used the SimpleTech and the Sandisk both in my D70, as well as a new Sandisk Ultra II 1 GB card.

By comparison, the Sandisk 256 MB card was definitely the slowest when performing the same tasks.It could not keep up with mp3 playback on my PDA.It has noticibly slower write times for photos on my cameras, especially the G3. The SimpleTech and the Viking cards perform about the same as each other.Neither has noticeable slowness on my PDA.Photo write times on the G3 were acceptable with this SimpleTech card.It really did not cause a delay in shooting dut to waiting for pictures to write to the card.

Interestingly, on the D70, this SimpleTech card still keeps up well.The D70 has an advanced buffering system that can hold several (about 12 at normal quality full resolution) images while writing them to the card.This is so much buffer that rarely so I have the need to exceed this many shots in one burst.Thus, when I am using the SimpleTech card, it really does NOT slow down my shooting at all.

By comparison, I do notice that the D70 finishes writing pictures to my ULTRA II card sooner, especially after a burst of several frames.(based on the blinking light that indicates CF card activity)I really never have the need to shoot a continuous burst of frames all the way to a full 256 MB card.

My conclusion is that this 256 MB SimpleTech card is just about the best way to go for CF memory currently.It will cost you less to buy 4 of these (1 GB) than to buy one 1 GB Ultra II card.And then, if you have one of these fail, you will not be out of memory at a crucial time - because you have 3 other cards to use.And you would be able to get a replacement for the failed card later at your convenience.

I highly recommend using multiple smaller cards over single larger cards.256 MB is my size of choice, and this is my choice among inexpensive 256 MB cards.At the current price (around $20 at the writing of this review) you can't go wrong!

Reliable and fast
I have been using this 256MB card for an year now on two of my Canon digital camera and a Casio PDA. It has always been reliable and there is no diminishing in storage capacity. Read and write are slightly faster than my San disk 256MB.

Excellent for Canon Digital Elph S230
I don't know what happened with an earlier reviewer, but my SimpleTech CF card works perfectly with my wife's Canon Digital Elph (Powershow S230). Never had any problems using it in my Minolta Dimage 7u either.

'Normal' SimpleTech cards consistantly write faster than other makers CF cards that are "High-Speed", 16x or whatever faster.

CF card speeds do vary depending on make and model of camera. My Dimage 7 writes a 5 megapixel image faster than my Powershot writes a 3.2 megapixel image. So any specific number given for read/write speed is relative and not absolute.

Great Customer Service!!
I give only 4 star because the CF card quit after a year of hard service.But if it worked flawlessly I would not have known how good of customer service Simpletech has.Hardly any time was spent on getting hold of customer service.Took less then 5 minutes to get RMA# and return instructions.2 Day Airborne service on replacement card...awsome! ...

Great price...great product
I paid $30 for this same pack at Office Depot a few days ago.

They work great for me.I just finished converting some family VHS tapes to my Macintosh dual G5 2.3 Ghz with a 16x CD/DVD superdrive. I popped the finished DVD in my 1-month old Sony DVD player.It also played well in my 7-year old Sony DVD player.

There aren't many DVD+R DL choices out there.I had no problems with my experience.

Never a Good Burn
I've tried to burn these with my Pioneer A08XL using Ulead and Nero software.After 9 attempts (I bought 3 three packs), I never got a playable disk.With Verbatim and Imation, all burns have been successful.So pay a bit more and save yourself a headache.

ok disks
These disks are slow and freeze up alot.Most of the time they dont work with any roxio/nero programs.Buy verbatim dvd+r dl and if u guys have ne image scribe dvd+r dl info or dvd+rw dl email me at snitbender@msn.com!!!

1 3 pack = 3 coasters
I wasted a three pack trying to burn to the Memorex disks to a USB ND-2510A.I was using both Nero and Roxio DVD Copy, and had the same results.I went out and bought the Verbatim DL disks and did not have any problems whatsoever.

stinkin riteks
There are only a few DVD+R DL media makers out there. MKM, Ritek, Ricoh, & philips, i believe.Most labels use the ritek media because they're cheap, and that's exactly what they are "CHEAP", crap, anyway you want to describe it.I've never had problems burning and playing back MKM Verbatims but these I bought, burned as DVDROM bookytpe, & verified.Played them on 3 different players and they exhibit alot of freezes, skips, etc.Why o why do memorex use riteks.So I won't be buying anymore DL media from memorex. ...

Own three SimpleTech 256 and a SimpleTech 512 CF cards
I've taken over 24,000 pixs with these on a Nikon CoolPix 5000 and only once did the 512 give me a fright.But in the end, the pixs were there.It happened during file transfer from the card to a PowerMac laptop.It could've been my fault; a little careless last weekend.

Speed of writing on SimpleTech cards is respectable; price is right though.

Excellent
I have used this card for about 6 months and never had any problems. I used it in a Canon G5 camera.

Incompatible with Muvo2
I purchased this card and the Sandisk 512 CF.Simpletech wouldn't format in the Muvo2.The Sandisk worked like a charm.Previous experience had this card fail in a week.I should have known better.I have never had a problem with Sandisk, but have been bitten twice with SimpleTech.

Reliable, and an excellent value . . .
I use this card in a Canon 10D digital SLR camera, and have found it a very reliable performer.There have been no major problems either writing any kind of data, or extracting the files later.The larger capacity is great for digital SLR camera users.For the Canon 10D, a 6 mega pixel camera, maximum JPEG file size at the highest quality setting averages about 2.5MB, and typically about 190 images can be saved to the card. Using the card in a lower resolution digital point and shoot camera, capacity would of course be many times greater.

As more files are written and the card gets closer to capacity, data transfer speed seems to slow down a bit.Still the card performs reasonably well even when taking a series of images in rapid succession, say four or five in two second interval.With a digital point and shoot camera, transfer speed should not be an issue.

Competitively priced... Economical and reliable, SimpleTech's 512 card is a great value.

Reliable and good value....

No complaints here
I'd never heard of this company before, but the price was low enough that I thought I'd give them a try. Had it for a few weeks now, and it's working fine. I have no complaints at all.

Great card!
This card is so fast.I have never had a proublem with any Lexar product.A+ in my book.

It works but not as you would presume it should !!!
There is no problem with the card or capacity. But when I compare my results with Lexar 12X card, there is NO difference in the time it takes to store the image ( once you click the camera ) !!!. Yes, restoring images from the card to computer is very fast compared to my 12x card. But while snapping photos there is no difference in speed. This could be because of the camera or some other reason...but my main reason to buy a 40x card was to snap photos as fast as possible.

By the way I am using this card in Nikon 5700 camera. Make sure that your camera supports the Write Acceleration Technology. he CF card will work, **BUT** there was no increase in speed over other cards. ... Read more

Would not stray from this brand again.
I first purchased these in the 25 pack spindle when I first used my generic brand DVD burner. After 25 successful burns I went cheap and tried the Velocity equivalent. Never again! 9 out of 10 burns were coasters. I bought the Ridata 50 pack and after another 20 or so discs - not one bad disc. Lesson learned.

Not all 8x QUALITY writes
I have the newest Plextor 716UF, hands down the highest quality burner available.(TLA0304)It's Media Quality Check can determine the write quality before burning to the media.Of the first 10 discs checked, 8 of these return with a "good" report at 8x.This is considerably better than 90% of the verbatim 8x writing at 2x reliably.Plextor ALWAYS makes reliable, high quality burns by adjusting the burn speed to the media.

UPC for spindle: 46122002016
EAN for spindle: 4719303660861
made in taiwan

DVD Identifier reports these Ridata's "unique disc identifier" to be: [DVD+R:RITEK-R03-001].Media codeblock snippet: RITEK R03 #T7. Full media code block: http://geocities.com/return050403/mcb_ridata.txt

looking at the inner ring lot numbers one can see there are MULTIPLE lots on one spindle:http://geocities.com/return050403/lot_ridata.txt

So quality will sadly vary from disc to disc.Disc 20, according to Media Quality Check "..would not be recoded properly at the specified speed"(8x), while disc 10 would be.

These DVDs beat all the rest out there!
I have burned over 200 in the past 6 months and not one came out crappy, I burn at 8x on my HP a642n and it is NO problem.I have used other dvds and they were POOR quailty and no good so I am sticking with Ridata, they are the best!

Works fine with Sony External DVD Burner
Bought these DVDs expecting to see some coasters, based on their price. All DVDs in the box worked fine, no coasters at all. I use the Sony External 8x DVD Burner that has an USB interface. Highly recommended. The trick to burning DVDs is to not do anything else on the computer while the dvd burning is going on. I used to get quite a few coasters, when I used to multiplex on computer.

Poor compatibility, don't waste your money.
Since the price is higher than the average for most DVD+Rs, I bought this item expecting to have better than average compatibility.This was not the case.Even burning at a 2X speed, I was only able to get the discs to play on two out of four players, and one out of three DVD-ROM drives.I see all these 4-5 star reviews, so maybe mine were part of a bad batch, but for now, don't waste your money on Ritek. ...

I bought this card for our honeymoon in Hawaii.It worked perfectly.All the pictures came out vivid and beautiful.I couldn't have been happier with this memory card!!

Quite good.

The Lexar Media 256MB SD Card SD256-231, like most 256MB cards, will store on average 284 pictures when used with a 2 megapixel camera, 213 images when used with a 3 megapixel camera,128 pictures when used with a 4 megapixel camera, 102 images when used with a 5 megapixel camera, and 80 pictures when used with a 6 megapixel camera.These numbers are based off the assumption that you are going to shoot your images at the highest quality JPEG setting available for the camera and understand that they are estimates and may be off by as much as 10 percent due to numerous factors including the complexity of the scene being shot and the compression algorithm used by your specific camera.

Get a convertor box instead
Instead of this pick up a Plextor convertor box.It takes the output of the camcorder (composite/RCA or S-Video) and compresses that to mpeg-2 (DVD) or mpeg-4 (or DivX) and includes software which easily burns that to DVD or CD (mpeg-1 or mini DVD).Look for Plextor's M402U box.Unless you really want to deal with 3.125 MB of data per second (25 Mbps), or about 180 MB per minute, or about 11 GB per hour through the firewire link, get the M402U.Your options will be greatly expanded, and you won't tell the difference by looking.

Excellent cable to assist in transfers of your videos to PC
Excellent method for transfering your videos to your computer for editing and making CD's.The i.Link cable is easy to use.Make sure you order the right cable.I ordered the wrong cable a 4 pin to 4 pin which I believe only works if you have a Sony computer.Most other computers like my Dell will probally need the 6 pin to 4 pin cable.
Also make sure your computer has the capability before ordering. i.LINK is also known as Firewire and IEEE-1394.
It does provide excellent high speed quality video transfers. ... Read more

Works Fine
I've had mine for months and it's all good. I just bought another today for a trip I'm going on. Recommended, 5 stars.

CRAP!
Had the memory for one month and it's dead. Memory Error! message all the time and card will no longer be formatted. Junk.

SD Card
I recently bought an EP SDcard, and I like it very much. The price on these is better than the other manufactures and the quality is the same.

Thumbs up.
Just bought one of these, and it works fine. I need to buy another one, and I think I'll try these guys again.

To the guy who said "stick to brands you know". Almost all SD cards come from the same 4 or 5 manufactures smart guy. The one I got is a Toshiba card. You're just throwing your money away on brand names.

Good card
I have 3 different cameras, and it works good in all of them. It's fast, and I haven't had any problems. I should have bought another. ... Read more

How many pictures will it store?
How many pictures will it store?It is the most commonly asked question from digital camera enthusiast but usually the question that is the most difficult to get a straight answer about.Well, considering I worked in the memory industry for over 7 years I can help clarify this perplexing question and do so unbiased as I have since changed industries.

The Lexar Media 256MB Memory Stick Duo Pro MSDP256-331, like most 256MB cards, will store on average 284 pictures when used with a 2 megapixel camera, 213 images when used with a 3 megapixel camera,128 pictures when used with a 4 megapixel camera, 102 images when used with a 5 megapixel camera, and 80 pictures when used with a 6 megapixel camera.These numbers are based off the assumption that you are going to shoot your images at the highest quality JPEG setting available for the camera and understand that they are estimates and may be off by as much as 10 percent due to numerous factors including the complexity of the scene being shot and the compression algorithm used by your specific camera.

I truly hope this review was helpful to you in determining whether this card is the right capacity for your specific needs. ... Read more

Great Card at a Bargain Price
[...] I have two of these memory cards now, and I just love their performance.I use the cards for my Panasonic digital camera, and I have filled one card with over 700 pictures with absolutely no problems whatsoever.I haven't experienced any of the speed problems that other reviewers say they have, and the claim that the card is made by Toshiba is completely factless and ridiculous.There is no better value for the money on the market right now, and reading and writing on this card for me has been very fast.

Perfect companion to my T3
I'm using it for about 6 months with Palm Tungsten T3 and had no problems. It is much faster than my previous Sandisk 256 Mb. Unlike other users I did not experince any speed problem for both reading and writing and recommend it.

Perfect
I read other reviews of this SD card and they werent to great.I was planning on buying the Sandisk card, but every store is sold out so I went with this.Its perfect!Nothing has gone wrong yet.Im using it in a Kodak 6.1 mp camera and it works great for me.Takes no time at all to save or delete photos! Its a great card, just sorry some people are having trouble with it.

A lame duck card
I purchased the 1gb Lexar card, and 5 hours after I started using it, I've got corrupted data that no amount of formating or data deletion will remedy.Given that I had already disceted the box into small pieces to send in for mail in rebates, I contacted Lexar and sent it to them on a Warrenty claim [cheaper then driving back to the retail location I purchased it at anyway].

I got it back yesterday, and it was suffering the same problem I sent it in for in the first place!

Their solution, they pay for the return shipping of card #2, and swap it out for two 512mb cards.

Not happy.But at least they are somewhat responsive to fixing the problem.

So far so good!
It's working great with my Navman iCN 510 GPS (which btw is an incredible GPS system!)No problem, fast access and fast download of the maps.Read some people taking forever to download maps, so was surprised to find that it took fraction of the time for me.Don't know if it was the card or the PC which determines the speed, but it took me about 45 minutes to download about 600MB worth of map onto my Lexar. ...
