Mini SD card battles!

Ok so here's the mathup any and all experience and opinion welcomed!!

PQI 2 gig mini sd w/ adaptor 18.95 + free shipping (http://meritline.stores.yahoo.net/pq...-card-2gb.html)
vs.
A-Data 2 gig mini sd w/adaptor 18.50 + free shipping (http://meritline.stores.yahoo.net/a-...h-adapter.html)

I honestly am unsure of both of these companies, but I kind of want to say at that price and the warranties on them I just have to worry about what I put on them not on them failing, but in any case let the fight begin!!

I was thinking that, however many people have had problems with 4 gigs, I should have clarified I have a treo 700w (verizon) Also there are alot of scams selling fake sd and mini sd's and then them crapping out or not having the right amount of memory on them. So the battle continues, should I hold out a little longer? Should I not get either of them? I already have 1 2 gb mini sd so its not like i NEED another but just to have. Let me know. and Verizonguy do you work for verizon by chance? Also have you purchased one off of ebay? how does it work, do you have any issues with the use or the memory on it?

question, why are you using a miniSD card and not a regular SD card? btw, adata is an ok company.

sonin,

The main reason is that everything seems to be going to mini sd, so i figure i might as well get one now and get the adaptor so that I can use it in the future, i.e. 750 and such

that makes sense. but the new 6800 and im sure alot of other pda's will start movin towards the microSD card. i think palm might continue to use the SD card though.

Aside from size what are the main differneces...it looks to be just size...do they have micro to mini adaptors by chance?

the micro sd is very small. they come with sd adapters. I had a 256mb micro in my a920. about the size of your pinkie fingernail.

Make sure and search the web for reviews. You do actually get what you pay for when it comes to memory as far as stability and speed. Speed being the biggest factors. I remember reading a review somewhere but cant remember where, sorry I can't help you with that part.
