Damned MiniSD cards!
I wish I still had my iPaq with its regular-sized SD card slot... :?

How reliable are these cards? $9/GB�either a great deal or just too good to be true. Would hate to loose 1 GB worth of data.

I have too many 1GB cards as it is. I'm waiting for 2GB/4GB cards to come down in price.

NOT A GREAT DEAL !!!!
On the surface the $9.00 1 GB SD card looks good. However, consider they have your $39.00 for ~2 months before you get the $30 rebate. And there is always the chance you NEVER get the rebate (that happens alot).
Another issue is the shipping cost. This item is about the size of a postage stamp and weighs slightly more. How can they charge $8.50 for standard snail mail shipping. This alone brings the cost up to $17.50.
NOT SUCH A GOOD DEAL. :roll:

We never get these deals in the UK 
Best offer is usually off eBay, where someone in Taiwan charges 20 quid extra to ship something the size and weight of a postage stamp (and you even get to see how very few stamps it took them to mail it).
