    8GB MICRO SDHC MEMORY CARD WITH SD ADAPTER £3.94. It's only class 4 but it would be a good addition to devices such as the Nook.
    It s via a 3rd party seller so use the BT11AA trick to get it at this price.

    Would this work in a raspberry pi (with the adaptor)? Thanks

    Yes... but class 4 is slow... Raspberry Pi site recommends a class 10 if possible.

    Thanks op... getting one of these for a digital photo frame.

    Be careful. That card gets a lot of negative comments saying it is a smaller capacity card hacked to appear as if is 32GB. You usually see this with cards on eBay, surprising if its happening on amazon too, but personally I wouldn't chance it.

    You're taking a gamble with a generic card - the Pi is pernickity enough with branded: http://elinux.org/RPi_SD_cards.

    But as Access suggests definitely go with a Class 10 - performance repays the extra couple of euro . I'm using a Transcend 16GB (TS16GUSDHC10), Class 4 cards by Transcend & Verbatim benchmark poorly by comparison.

    Sounds similar to the Chinese Magical Hard-Drive

    I have a "32GB" flash drive like this, 5MB/s write rates till you hit the phantom space, then it flies up to 20MB/s

    It would be more surprising if it was genuine. Its a third party seller, I would only trust amazon.

    I got a genuine 32GB class 10 UHS1 sandisk for ~€18.50 via flubit
