"We understand that consumers have a huge stockpile of SD cards that aren't compatible with today's mobile phones, but thanks to our SD to microSD adapter, those SD cards can now be put to good use,” said Joe King, general manager of mobile consumer solutions for SanDisk."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/wey-20070401-sdtomicrosd.jpg" /><br /><br />Time to wipe the dust off those SD cards and put 'em to use again. Thank you, SanDisk!<br /><br /><b>Update:</b> It was brought to our attention that a similar product exists in the real world. Check it out <a href="http://asukal.net/blog/?p=284">here</a>.

Yeah I can see how everyone will be queuing up to have a big fragile lump of SD stick out of their phones. Very chic!

Ironically I would actually buy one of these they if did exist... as it would make swapping data from other sd devices (cameras in particular) a lot easier.

Oh well... maybe next year :lol:

Always funny to see what shows up here on 4/1. Someone should come up with a listing of all the old April Fools postings so we can compare and search for the best ones.
