SanDisk’s 16GB microSDHC card has an MSRP of US $99.99 and the 16GB M2 card has an MSRP of US$129.99. Details can be found at www.sandisk.com/mobile.
Kingston Technology has just announced the addition of 8GB microSDHC cards to its mobile memory storage line. Shipping immediately, the new 8GB microSDHC cards offer greater storage options to the latest mobile phones and digital devices in the smallest footprint available.
