Micro SDHC card

    Any idea where to find a cheap (<€20) micro SDHC card compatible memory card suitable for the HTC Desire? Between my slow internet connection and confusing SD card standards I'm kind of lost. Would prefer an online shop if cheaper but so far all I have found is people on ebay shipping from China with 3-4 week delivery times

    I find these great. If you sign up they send you great discount offers. Postage is free and fast. They also take Paypal.

    No need to go to China. Try www.7dayshop.com ( England) all the cards you want. Very reasonable in price and spot on.

    Wow i never thought I'd get a reply that fast. Thanks a million, I've got a 1gb card atm but I'd really need a 4/8gb one.

    Watch out for the shipping charge to Ireland. These guys were competitive but then started to charge £7.95 per order shipping to Ireland. At least they did and I didn't shop there anymore. Of course if you buy enough the £7.95 is okay for the overall order.

    Edit: Sorry I see from a post below by Dazzy that the P&P is 5.95 pounds

    You can see what i mean about the offers. They send you a code to enter at the shopping cart. The only problem is sometimes you buy stuff you don't need. Or you buy one for your kids or mates and then its not a bargain anymore because you buy loads. Anyway happy shopping;)

    second Brian Ireland on that,

    Always use http://www.memorybits.co.uk/ for the past year or so and no probs.

    Make sure you choose free postage though as there is a couple of postage options and i always select the free postage and they have always arrived to me.

    For approx €31 delivered you can get a 16MB card from the 7 day shop.

    http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=777_6&products_id=106392&source=webgains&siteid=20363

    Its only a class 2 but that would be fine for a phone.

    The card itself is £20 and the postage to Ireland is £5.95 which converts to about €31.

    I've got a load of these in various sizes which I used to sell on eBay. PM me if interested

    Thanks everyone, the best I've found so far is 8gb class 4 for £10 (and 4 cent!). This is on amazon and gets free delivery

    Thats free delivery in the UK and a 3rd party seller -though it does say super saver delivery. Normally you have to buy from amazon.co.uk and be above £25 to get free delivery (not sure in this case as its a merchant seller). It can be worthwhile buying some other item to get the free postage.

    Also amazon might not ship memory cards to Ireland at all, try adding to your basket. THey have lots of odd restrictions on amazon.

    I did try and check it out and it worked perfectly (no restrictions or postage costs) I'm very surprised its that cheap as in town you would pay 3-4x the price

    I tried it and got £4.85 added on as postage to Ireland.

    If I buy 3 it is over the £25 and I did get offered free delivery.
