I had a hard time getting it to click in. I haven't tried to take it out yet. Maybe tweezers?

Same thing here, but I found that an x-acto knife (used very carefully, mind you) can be used to push and lift at the same time on the edge of the card to pop it out. However, I had the 1GB card and didn't have this problem. Only have the problem with the 2GB card. Furthermore, I plan to leave it in permanently (may not have a choice anyway) as I don't have a need to remove it.

It should be a "push in" "push out" system. IS that not working?

I have a 2GB card and it is working fine with the push in push out mechanism. The complexity is that the push (either in or out) has to be a lot deeper than seems obvious. You have to push it about 1/16" beyond the edge of the housing for the eject mechanism to work. I use my fingernail to do the trick.

I used a paper clip, an xacto seems a little bit extreme, but if it works...

Heh... very true! I just didn't have a paper clip at the time.

well its simple, you take it out and grab another microSD card and make them pretend they're having a tea party and when you get bored with that you take a white napkin and tear it up in a way to make a very tiny wedding veil and flower bouquet and then gather all of your memory cards up and put on a splendid wedding... or i could just be making all of that up :lol:

i really wanted to take it out so i can put it in its SD counterpart and stick it in my Nintendo Wii. the good news is i got it out today, i figured out why it was stuck too. turns out it was getting stuck on the little black cover thing that hides the memory card slot hole.
