    Just a heads up for people, in HMV on Grafton Street (just in at the counter) they're selling 2GB memory card for €30 (and in 3G and Meteor a 2GB is €120).

    As far as I know the micro and mini sd's are varients of the sd cards. you can get an adapter for them to fit into an sd card slot. I know one of them definitely does, I'm not sure about the other.

    The one you buy in HMV has the mirco version and then two adapters. So they fit any phone.

    That's weird I edited my post after doing a quick google but it musn't have saved. The micro sd and mini sd's are varients of the sd cards. The mini is slightlt smaller than the sd and you can get an adapter so that it will fit ina n sd slot. The micro is even smaller than the mini and you can get an adapter for it so that it fits in to either the mini or a standard sd slot. So muboop if it is a micro with the adapters like Gavin says then it will work fine in any of the three slots.

    That's not bull.

    As AC said, an adaptor will allow a microSD card to work in a miniSD slot and a different adapter will allow it to work in a standard SD slot.

    I just bought one yesterday, from shop4memory.com and it comes with these adapters. :)
