Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of 1 GB SanDisk MicroSD TransFlash Memory Card (Bulk)
Customer Review: WORKS WITH LG CU500 -- This is the card Cingular recommends.
Summary: 5 Stars
Cingular sells this card online with its phones (like the LG CU500 I just bought) for $49.99 delivered. Digital Media Source, the Amazon Marketplace partner, sells the bulk version for $25 delivered. It comes quickly by first class mail and the delivered price is still half that of Cingular.
Cingular apparently sells and recommends the actual SanDisk card with the CU500 because of many reports that other manufacturers' cards don't work with it. Personally, I think that this is either a manufactuing quality issue or a user-installation issue (not seating the card properly), because all MicroSD cards should meet the same standard. Nevertheless, Cingular sells and recommends the SanDisk card, and the Cingular user forums seem to have basically no complaints about the SanDisk product and random complaints ("My Kingston card didn't work" "Mine did." "Well, mine didn't" etc.) about cards from other manufacturers with regard to the CU500. Sandisk invented the concept of MicroSD and is a manufacturer with a reputation for the highest quality, so the big complaint on the forums about having to use the SanDisk card is that it is expensive.
So SanDisk it is if I want a minimal hassle. But of course that $49 price from Cingular is frustrating when you can get a non-SanDisk 1GB card from a site like Newegg for $17. Enter the best of both worlds from Amazon: an actual no-kidding *official* SanDisk card for $25 delivered. Now that's worth my money. The only concern that one might have is that all you get in the little envelope from Digital Media Source is a little soft plastic container with the Sandisk card and an adapter in it. That's it. No instructions. No other information. Nada. However, given that Cingular provides detailed instructions online as to how to install the card in your particular phone (like my CU500), you don't need anything more. I am totally happy with my purchase, which arrived at my door in NYC 3 days after I ordered it (one day for the USPS to get it here, 2 days for Digital Media to send it). Highly recommended.
