How big is your MicroSDHC card and speed?

[ymarker]

Just curious what size MicroSDHC card people are buying for the phone and class/speed (2/4/6).

I'm thinking of getting 8Gb, but would love to get 16gb if any good deals float around. Not sure if the TP can utilize the 6MB/s speeds of Class 6 cards. Anyone know?

I just ordered a 16B card...not sure what speed it is though!

BTW, I got mine from provantage.com $80 shipped.

I have a 16gb from sandisk and it is class 2....what are the differences in class???? Do they cost more??? Are they really that much faster???

I got mine from Best Buy when i bought my touch pro they only had one and i thought that it would be the best that sandisk offered but i didn't realize it was class 2 until i read this thread and checked my card. But the speeds are very fast in comparison to some other micro and mini sd cards i have used.

Class 2 = 2MB/s
Class 4 = 4MB/s
Class 6 = 6MB/s

I have a Sandisk 8GB class 4 or 6 card in my TP with no problems.

I do like the ability to choose either sync or storage device when you plug the TP to your computer.
I'm looking for another 8GB card for movies soon.

The class is the MB/s of transfer speed. Class 2 is 2MB/s, 4 is 4MB/s, etc.

I haven't seen anything over 4MB/s for micro SD cards (at least not for 8GB and up), but yes, it does make a difference. It's not a noticeable 100% increase in speed, but it is noticeable.

I'm currently just running my 4GB class 2.

Class 4's are generally quite a bit more expensive than the class 2's.

I am so tempted to get one of those 16gb cards but I just cant do it yet. I mean I have a 6gb in my mogul right now that I have maxed out before and I can get an 8gb card $20 so a 16gb card at 4x the price is just crazy to me.

8gb class 4

Considering 8GBs were like $150 when they first came out, $80 for a 16GB doesn't seem too bad.

I will have my TP next week, I currently have a 4gb micro sd class 6 sitting here. There is a noticeable difference when your watching movies or listening to music cause they load up faster with faster class. I had a class 4 when I had a 2gb my 4 is really fast, it's just laying around right now cause I can't put it in my Diamond.
