Purchased from Amazon, but now available from many places in the $57 range.
Tested in my Samsung A800, iPaq hx4700, and my PC via the included SD adapter in a USB 2.0 cardreader.
In the phone it worked fine right out of the box.
In the iPaq it works fine.
In the PC it also works well. Here I did some informal write testing (putting large video files on the card). In these tests, with the USB 2.0 card reader, I was able to get write speeds in the range of 4.3 MB/s (342MB in 80 seconds). Surprising to me, this was just a little slower than the write speeds I got when writing to my Sandisk UltraII 2GB CF card with the same files. Overall a VERY good write speed.
Overall I'm happy with the card. They are pretty tiny (small doesn't cut it). Caution when handling is definitely a must.
