I've been using those exact adapters for couple years now. They work fine, but you have to be careful. There's a couple thread here on this topic. One tip I learned the hard way - Do Not ever put the adapter in the phone without the Nano card in it. The adapter will get stuck on the little spring prongs when you pull it out.

Yeah I read the exact same thing, to never put a adapter in alone.

MicroSD Case

Hey guys,
I've been searching the net, it seems MicroSD Card cases/holders/wallets are starting to appear, but I was wondering if anyone has any experience with any of them..
The Pelican 0910 case was the one I was looking at right now, but I'm just looking around at this point to see what might work best.
Feedback desired ;-)

there is an old thread that's closed but wondering what does everyone use to manage all of their cards if you have multiple?http://www.blackberryforums.com/hardware-accessories/91766-microsd-case-holder-do-they-make-one.html

I have 2 8gb cards. One stays in the kaiser and the other in a very tiny usb adapter that stays on the keychain (a mobilemate micro) . My advice? Just get bigger cards so you dont need as many
where to find a really cool microSD card case/holder
I saw this link on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFzEuG3oM8s
the web address is www.sdcardholder.com , the thing is way cool, holds ten cards as well as an adaptor and is razor thin. I called the toll free number and the guy told me the first run was bought out completely by a company that is going to give them as swag at CES, they have more in production and will be selling on Amazon and ebay after the first of the year. I literally was searching for a year for something like this. The company says they will be $7.95 with free shipping in the US. Beats the crazy pricing I have seen for really crummy designs and most sellers try to rape you on the shipping.
Agree

I want one - that's a good bit of plastic... but not available in the UK yet
Oversized metal one from ebay it is.
Try this Card wallet:
http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_11000130_11000734&products_id=21956
Since I never try that before, but I using the phone case from this store, the qualities are really good, and the outlook looks very practical, but if more design or colors provided, It will be more attractive.

Questions about AT&T touch Fuze

I would like to know what accessories the AT&T includes?
Will it includes the headset, and Micro SD card?
Thanks for help.

No it does not include a headset of a micro sd card. But it will include a little usb adapter where you can connect headphones and things like that. Some times AT&T might have promotions where you get a micro sd or a bluetooth headset and things like that but usually they do not include either.
What you get in the box is:
AT&T Fuze
A bunch of manuals
A screen protector
An extra stylus
A head/TV out adapator (I think that is what it is, although I haven't used it yet)
can the Fuze allow 16Gb Mirco SD?

It's not for TV out, it's for using normal headphones with it

It does support tv out as well and the fuze supports up to 32gb.
OK

The adapter is to let you use different connections for different sizes of headphones.....PERIOD.... also usb headphones which you can connect directly to the phone anyway.
It supports TV out but with a different adapter which you have to buy.

does HTC have an official in-ear headfree?
Depends

I'm not completely sure, I think this depend on the carrier like the appearance of each carrier device.
At least in AT&T "Fuze" as they named it, and as far as I remember it only came with:
1. An additional stylus.
2. Screen Protector.
3. And the adapter for headphones.
Now a friend from AT&T added a 8 GB microsdhc with usb reader and a hard cover for free, this is as long they can justified it (not stealing) (just in case) .
I suggest you to ask the carrier and find out what they offer.
Also see if you like the way the manufactured their device, I LIKE BETTER AT&T DESIGN also their signal coverage.

Simore 3G/HSDPA Dual Sim Adaptor

Anyone used one of these?
I have one but it doesnt work for some reason. The HD2 is listed as compatible and after cutting up my sims to fit the adaptor they still work so i guess i have faulty product.
Ive already contacted Simore asking for a replacement or refund but was wondering if anyone else has had any joy with the adaptor?
http://www.simore.ch/en/two_sim_cards_in_one_mobile/dual_sim_card_platinum.php
bumping this in the hope of an actual response!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=645565
Same here. My infinite light didn't work. I sent it back. No refund. Stay away from Simore.
Infinate light worked for me. they are a bit fiddly to get working & to be honest are certainly not worth the asking price ...
Yea i'm well versed in dual sim adapters and i'd say Simore are just about the worst ones out there... All style and no substance.

I think it's the European or EMEA version. What those holes are though, I don't know.
On this link, under Tech Specs, it also says microSD up to 32GB: http://www.samsungmobilepress.com/2011/03/22/GALAXY-Tab-10.1

well if it somehow ever makes its way stateside and magically makes the current models vanish.....guess who is using their 3 year exchange plan with bestbuy
That's the pre production ver, the retail ver have the holes covered. Its just a screw on the prototype unit "unpolished". http://futurezone.at/mmedia/2011-05-13/2510_fz4.jpg
I belief samsung removed the micro sd since HC doesn't support it nativity and they can use that excuse to lower the cost of the tab. Anyway i hope i was wrong.
And the tech specs on that samsung site is out updated since march (still android 3.0), here's the new one http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxytab/10.1/spec.html 3G no micro sd.
And here the http://www.samsung.com/us/microsite/galaxytab/index.html on the FAQ they say no SD slot i assume they meant micro sd slot. Since before they update to this page, on the comment lots of people ask about micro sd slot. Once page updated the FAQ say no sd slot.

Maybe, but in your pic there are no SIM slot either, so it doesn't confim nor disconfirm.
And on the link you provide below, which you say has the updated info, you can see the same two holes:

It says Android 3.0 on many websites, not unusual to find errors like that. That could go for the microSD part as well of course. My source is www.samsungmobilepress.com yours is samsung.com.
I'd say it's not definate either way.

If there are no microSD and THAT is the reason, then the devs are not too bright imo. There is a big difference in file transfer speed, wouldn't you say?
Yes, I totally agree with the speed difference. Also not good for those of us on capped 3G and also capped broadband services.
This was where I saw mention of the cloud service, it say's it unconfirmed but time will tell.

Device flex at 3:00 is insane, I think I'll just keep the transformer lol, that much flex is not worth the thin. If I accidentaly sit on it on the couch it's a 100% chance to break in half.

And for your pic yes there is 2 hold covered by a plastic like the retail one unlike the pototype ver no plastic covering the hole. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v601/kwan/b_image05.jpg
As for the samsungmobilepress its old march 22, 2011. The one on samsung.com is updated a week ago only, before its update giving info like the one in samsungmobilepress.com but now the info is change.
From the lastest press may 24th 2011 http://www.tabletd.com/uploads/711701471591368_0.jpg
over 10+ 10.1 tab on the floor only one got the micro sd but they type it out
http://www.thaiandroidphone.com/data/attachment/forum/201106/02/161843baz77qn78z7fyjq7.jpg I did talk to the employee and they are pretty sure the retail ver won't have micro sd that's why the have to type it out.
I preorder the 3G ver on the show and they say the earliest is june 30 but will prolly be out on july-aug. I know this suck I myself would love for it to have micro sd. Hope samsung will notice how important it is to have micro sd and do it right before they release it.
