The smallest memory card

By: Alex De Mostafa

Media devices are requiring more and more storage space for content like photos, music and applications. Thus memory cards must keep the pace and raise the bar. And SanDisk makes exactly that by introducing the new microSD High Capacity (microSDHC) flash memory cards that provide 6 or 8 gigabyte of storage space.

“What’s more, removable cards make it easy to share content you create with friends, ‘sideload’ files from a computer, and add more storage simply by purchasing more cards. By offering capacities of 6GB and 8GB, SanDisk is poised to enable people to enjoy more photos, more map data for navigation, more videos, more games and more music, wherever they go, on any phone with a compatible microSDHC slot.”

For now they've sent the sample microSDHC to major network operators and phone manufacturers for testing purposes. That being said you won't find these cards in retail outlets just yet, but producers say they'll be out before the end of the year.

The cards make use of the new SD 2.00 specification standard for memory disks bigger than 4GB. This also means the microSDHC will benefit from the transfer speed boost that SD 2.00 brings. So if you want to brag to your friends you have more storage space than their recently bought iPhone all you have to do is wait until autumn.
