wouldn't it be awesome if these guys were getting kickbacks from a miniSD eBay scam created to boost sales?

oysterhead-
Can't tell you anything about a scam... Only my experience (which is obviously limited since I've only been a member of this site since 11/08/2003, and have had 8 different PDA phones since then). The ebay user I purchased from has a rating of 99.6% positive with 34804 transactions, and they are a powerseller (in case you didn't check the link).
So far I've used the hell out of the card with over 3 GB on it and haven't had one single problem. I've loaded all of my programs to the card and they've all worked perfect. Also have Sprite backup on the card and haven't had any problems backing up the phone everyday.

Well, I bit the bullet and bought one from this seller, priority mail shipped.
If it works on my 6700, I will let you know.

For me, buying the 4GB card off of ebay (from pc2buy) is how I came to register for this site. When I received the card a week or so ago, my 6700 would not read it so naturally I felt that I got ripped off. I was all set to send it back when, as a last ditch effort, I did a google search and found this thread with the advice to try reformatting the card. I just got a chance to do this last night and it works as advertised. I stuck the card in the SD slot on my desktop and got a command prompt and issued "format d: /fs:fat32". I then stuck the card in my 6700 and it was instantly recognized. I'm still in the process of syncing over all of my Urge music as well as many MB's of marine charts but so far it works great.

Hello, new to this site and my PPC 6700. I just recently purchased a 4GB SDHD Mini from this site( http://www.flash-memory-store.com/qm...e-digital.html) for my 6700, it was the second of two cards that i purchased for my phone, the first was a 2GB SanDisk card that did not work on my phone. When i first tried my new Qmemory card my phone would not recognise the card, and i felt like i just wasted another $100.00, but i then moved one picture to the SD card using the provided adapter from my desktop computer, and then my phone was able to read the card. I did not apply any firmware upgrade or install any additional software, and my phone was able to read the 4GB SDHD mini card, oh and to be sure it was actually a 4GB card, i transferred 3.97Gb of information to it. Hope this information helps all of you looking for the ability to store more on your 6700.

I went through the ebay retailer linked a few posts up, got my 4 GB MiniSD + adapter... and itr works flawlessly after following the formatting rules above.
I have a text only wikipedia archive and a couple gigs of music on hand now, and I love it.

As soon as I remove the card all is good again. I only paid 60 bucks for it and I figured that if it didnt work I could always send it back. Does anyone have any input on this matter? I read of updates that could make it work, but nothing concrete.

Funny enough, I bought a 2GB miniSD Ultra II from NewEgg and the same exact thing happened (froze completely upon insertion, unfroze right when you take it out). I called SanDisk support, and they said that I wasn't the first person to call support who purchased a memory card from NewEgg. They might need to check on their supplier.
Not quite ready to make the 4GB jump (I'll just wait for the 1TB  ), but does anyone else use the 2GB Ultra II in the 6700 without issue?
RMA'd my first card to NewEgg, and they're now out of stock (of course).

Don't use that ebay link buy the card for $45 from http://meritline.stores.yahoo.net/tr...dhc-card2.html they have a good reputation and aren't fake like ebay ones.
BUT I did just buy a 4gb memory card and none of my readers can see it so it is impossible to format and I just read that Windows Mobile doesn't support SDHC. So do I return the card?

did you buy the card form the site you posted?
i just skimmed through the thread and it appears that the "non-compliant"/"non-HC" cards work -- is that right?

I ordered the 4GB card off of ebay (from pc2buy) and it works fine after formatting in fat32. pc2buy even throw's in a USB 2.0 card reader for SD and mini-SD. Positive feedback for pc2buy and his 4GB mini-SD card!
