Smallest MicroSD card reader

Hi,
I found this thing :
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.6108
Anyone has that?
Does it work with MicroSDHC card (6 GB or 8 GB) ?
Thanks.

This is ridiculously small. It's fantastic, I'm sold on getting one.
Your question was answered on the website at the bottom.

The factory says yes but we don't have such card here to test for it. If you're intending to use it for 4GB tf only, then I suggest you to wait for our in-house test confirmation first.

Just curious, does it matter at all that it doesn't say SDHC compatible? Will it slow down data transfers? I saw one similiar on mobileplanet, but didn't order because of that.
I got this one instead: http://sandisk.com/Products/Catalog(1385)-SanDisk_MobileMate_Micro_Readers.aspx
It has the same type of keychain, and is very small as well. But, it says microSD, microSDHC, and M2 compatible.

I've got a smaller one, £5 off ebay. Be careful though, they can bend and could cause damage to your MicroSD.

now this is the smalest one, mine is by adata, its also the fastest.
it's a shame you need to buy the adata one with a 1GB or 2GB.
do you have a link, I wanna get a few more, i had mine for about half a year, just want to have some more for spare.

Yeah, I think it's the same hardware. It's extremely useful for sucking off data from pcs that you shouldn't be touching, as the device can be barely seen protruding from a USB port.

Vijay,
But it does not say that it supports MicroSDHC, especially 6 GB and 8 GB.
However, it is really the smallest!

thanks, I can get the adata one's in hong kong, but it's useless for me to buy the adata version with 1 GB or 2GB, i have no use for the memory card, to be honest , all my 1GB and 2GB microsd that I have , has all been given away, my smallest ones are 4GB now.
Vijay say's he got it from ebay for 5 USD, that's why i asked.
@gogol
it does not have to actually stated it for it to support it, search the forum for my test on micro sd, then you will get your anwser.

It's definitely an iPhone killer.

I would've got this but.... no microSD slot. At least it's not explicitly mentioned on any product sheets I've seen htc.com, devicewire, expansys... They all just 4GB internal

Hmm. Hope little 900mA/h battery be enough for all these nice features.

If htc's claim is true, its stand-by time doesn't look bad. At least it's not worse than Elf's.

Chip Swap
I noticed that his has the newer msm7201a chip in it. It is supposedly pin compatible with a tilt's msm7200. Can this be swapped into a tilt and utilize its enhanced speed (528 vs 400 mhz)?

They layout and shape of the phone are strikingly like the LG KU990, at least, that's what I think

Where have you seen that it does? I know lots of gadget news sites say it does but where did they get their information? It's my guess they just assumed it would have one.

That could very well be the sim card slot. However... I can't image HTC releasing a phone to compete in todays market without having a micro sd slot.. It COULD have a hidden slot like it does on the touch.

Max Capacity and Performance Class for MicroSD card on TP

Ok, since i tell that money is not a problem.
I want to know what is the biggest and fastest Micro SD card available for the HTC Touch Pro.
Anyone can tell if have tried the 32 Gb SDHC Class 10??? or higher (if exists 64gb)...
Thanks in advance...

class 6 16GB is the fastest/biggest you can get.

Kingston has a 16GB, class 10 micro sd card. Is there any limit in class that the phone can handle?

I think you are mistaken.
Follow this link...

i do tech support calls for AT&T mobility... i get alot of questions about these devices...

There is no 32GB card at the moment. I assumed you ask what can you get right now.

Yes...there is

LMAO i couldnt stop laughing when i read this.
SD CARD LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!

rofl i lol'd too. im sure it was an oversight or something. anyway im still curious if the device can even use the whole transfer rate offered by a class six. Can anyone confirm that this phone can utilize a class 6 to its full potential?
*so i read up that wiki. according to that then there is no point in getting anything over a class two since the top speed it hits with a class 6 is .5 MB/s and the class 2 bandwidth limit is 2Mb/s*
sooooo any thoughts on this?

sandisk does have a 32gb microsd.... but it's class 2 and $200
http://sandisk.com/products/mobile-memory-products/sandisk-microsdhc
not in stock now though.... it was a bit back....

neato, but if it was in stock wouldn't it have the same performance on our phone as a class 6? From what i wrote earlier, i believe our speed is capped by a hardware limitation so 4+ class speeds wont help?.
id really like an expert to confirm this.

I would also like an experts advice on this matter... I am stuck with a 2g micro card and am looking to buy the biggest one I can stick in my phone.
Thanks for any input.

Depends on how soon you want it. Also, I presume you are using a similar device to the TP... I was in a BestBuy recently and they had an 8gb microsd in-stock! The only place I was able to get a 16gb microsd(class 2), was online unfortunately. Of course, I did see a few 32GB usb sticks for under $100 and grabbed one up, several months ago...
Also, as physical proof that a 16gb card will work/be recognized:

Does the class count?! This week i would like to buy a 16GB class 10 card?! will it work? i'm not interested in the speed. im just interested in it to work in the phone 4 downloading movies over the internet & such...

save money, get a slower class. 16 gb works.

Let's bring this thread up to date now in 2016 I can confirm 128gb and 200gb micro sd cards work in my T7272.

Class 10 Kingston speed problems

A while back I ordered kingstons new class 10 16gb sdhc microsd card. when it came i was using it on my hero but never had great speeds. me being a dumbass thought it was the hero's fault and never payed attention to it. well when I got my evo people reported really fast speeds with class 6 cards and i realized its something wrong with my card (durrr).
so I sent it in last week and they gave me a replacement today. the first thing i did was pop it in my phone and partition it with swap and ext2. I then saw people on here (xda) having problems with ext2 and kingston's cards. To my dismay, i found my card writing at the dreadful speed of 3.5MB/s. I did a few benchmarks and sure enough, it was consistently capping around 3.5MB/s. I formatted it to a few different FS's and found that NTFS was fast at first then quickly came to a halt and froze. FAT32 with many different allocation sizes stayed at 3.5MB/s.
let me point out, all of my formats were on my phone or a quick format so right now I am trying a complete format that checks for errors.. I am not totally convinced this will work but i have some hope. only problem is its taking its sweet time sooo I came here in the meantime.
Should I send the card back and never format the new one with ext? is there something that I can do to the card that will fix the speed?
any help would be greatly appreciated.. sorry for the long ass post

im having these problems with my patriot class 10 also... ive read up about how formatting it will always change the allocation unit size to a lower value than it comes with. i had to go through linux (used slax) to change my allocation unit size to a max of 128kilobytes since windows only formats a fat32 partition. anyways my write speed went up 1 megabyte a second and read stayed the same. so now it shows as a class 6... help anyone...
btw try this guide
http://www.patriotmem.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3696
you can use slax to just boot linux from a cd... and instead of using the command mkfs.vfat use mkdosfs

thanks for that man.
i talked to kingston via email today and he said to try coping big files since most sdcards dont do super fast write speeds on pictures and music. so I did and sure enough, I was getting faster speeds but I did change my cluster size to about 4000kb instead of 32. so I guess you will get slow write speeds on smallish files

if you formatted under windows and selected 4000 that means 4KB... notice how there is a K after 32 and 16... 4000bytes is 4kylobytes...
just basic

You can run a class 10 card in this phone, but the phone doesn't support class 10 speeds.... yet....

yes (s)he was misinformed... but you only half handedly helped... what card, how you formatted or posting the link to where you previously wrote this info if you already did would help the OP/2ndP, which you'd think would be more important/helpful than just blasting someone else in the thread.

Calculator ERROR!!

Hello people
past day i was doing some calculations and i've noticed that the calculator d'snt work well. when i try to reduce a percentage to a value the result shown is always wrong.
Anyone noticed that?
sorry for the inglish.

Lol. That's a first. A calculator not calculating correctly

Show us a calculation so we can try to see if the same happens here

I fear when it comes to calculations with percentage the main problem are users that don't know how to enter the formula right.
My math teacher always said: NEVER use the percent and the root keys of your calculator because they will only cause trouble. Do your calculations the "real" way (x/100*y) instead of percent and (x^(1/y)) instead of root.
It seems he was right

The XP calculator has it; it's only in the standard view though. In the scientific view, you can just do x^0.5 where x is your number

caught ringer volume when took snapshot...doh

I don't see what's wrong with that. The way the computer interprets your command is 100 minus 15 percent of 1 which is 100-0.15=99.85. I assume you want to subtract 15% of 100 to get 100-15=85? Basically the % operation just divides the value by 100. So 15/100=0.15. You still have to multiply that by something (in your case 100) to get back to the percentage of the value you want.

You're doing it wrong mate. The calculator is giving you the correct answer for what you entered.

Its not wrong with all the other calcs I use..just wasting energy with all that other crap

Its not an error with the calculator its an error with user input. Trust me I see this day in and day out because I am a maths teacher.
A calculator will only do the calculation you tell it to do, you still have to know some maths in order to input it correctly
