I bought this card as an adjunct to my Treo 650. Couldn't be happier with the purchase, the transaction, the shipping time (lightning fast) and the product. I highly recommend this card for Treo owners.Digital camera Review: Great deal !
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought two of these for my Canon PowerShot S2 IS (one from Amazon) based on the review above. For where I'm from (Kuwait) this is a great deal because the regular SanDisk 1 GB SD cards are selling for the same price (not the Extreme III high performance ones). No complaints so far. Haven't tried any other cards with my camera, but these cards provide a lot of storage space for stills and up to 7.5 mins at highest resolution for video, all with great performance! Definetly recommend this for Digital Camera users.Digital camera Review: Fast, tiny, reliable memory
Summary: 5 Stars
I have heard that 32x SD memory performs pretty much as well as the the SanDisk Extreme III cards do.That being the case, you can save about $10-$15 per gigabyte card by purchasing the cheaper 32x offerings.
Then again, SD memory is just becoming the top choice among manufacturers, and even though CF cards are cheap, fast, and durable, they are losing ground to the SD format at a rapid rate. If you have a camera that requires an SD card, get this one. SD will be around for a long time to come, and this card is a generation ahead of all others in terms of speed, and is built to near bullet proof standards. Even if your current camera seems happy with a 32x card, the Extreme III card is four times as fast for just a few more Dollars, and will still be ready to serve when you buy your next generation of digicam. I have two one gig Extreme III cards for my Canon S2 IS digicam, and they have been flawless to date. It is a real treat to know that my digital media can read and write at twice the speed of my current camera, as the SanDisk cards will still be leading edge when I replace the the Canon S2 sometime in the future.
I intend to buy more Extreme III 1 gig cards as time goes by. One gig in still mode is plenty for a two week vacation worth of still shots, but the awesome movie mode on the S2 calls for more memory, and the SanDisk Extreme III delivers the goods in a big way.
One last note. The CF card is the most mature of the lot, even though it is being abandoned by the industry due to it's larger size. Still, it is pretty small overall, and several will fit in your wallet. You can buy an ultra high speed CF card of one to four gig capacity for a song lately. As they get cheaper, buy them. Any cheap $14 card reader will let you use them as storage on your PC or Mac, and they offer great bang for the buck.
If you have a device that requires an SD card though, buy the best on the market. The SanDisk Extreme III is the best you can buy today. Nothing else even comes close.
