I got this very quickly and was pleased with the quality of the product. It comes in a bubble envelope and the microSD card was in a little plastic case, along with a SD card adapter, so you can put it into a card reader in your computer. They do not say it comes with one of these, I read another reviewer and found out from him. Don't order a seperate one unless you need two of them.

I must have missed the discription. I ordered this thinking it was a Class 4 (the 4 in a circle in the upper right corner of the micro card). It says Class 2 in the discription. If you're product (like an SanDisk MP3 player) requires higher class, please read the discirption better (since I didn't).
BE AWARE - Technical Details stated Class 4 yet sent Class 2 - Review written on October 27, 2008

When I order this item the Technical Details stated Class 4 with the Bulk picture showed no case, as is the case sometimes. I just received a class 2 so look at my printout to confirm and then the current listing. I see they have corrected the picture yet not the Technical Details as they still list this as a class 4. Seems like a bait and switch, so I asked for a refund and/or a Class 4 whichever they prefer. I will add the outcome to the feedback once I hear back from them........

Class2 is 2mb speed whereas class 4 is 4mb speed. At Fry's the Class 2 runs about the same as this with the Class 4 a little more, however, it is a 50 mile drive or about $5 extra so I trusted Amazon to ensure business was above board. Now I have to deal with the company not Amazon whom I ordered from. Will have to rethink this business model depending on the outcome.

Long time SanDisk user. This card is speedier than the 2gb by far. I use it on a blackberry and after a bit of research came up with the right adaptors. Now I transfer files back and forth to the laptop and computer. Thumbnail sized. Very handy. Huge memory dirt cheap.
If it doesn't work, it's your device's fault - Review written on October 23, 2008

I bought three of these at this unbelievable price, and it works beautifully on one of the three products I had intended to use them on, which would happen to be my Blackjack II phone. Apparently "SDHC" didn't exist when the other two devices were made, so the product specs wouldn't even know to warn me that they weren't compatible with this.

I'm still satisfied with my purchase, but I'll have to force the other two into use somehow... maybe slap one in my girlfriend's older Samsung flip phone (if it works) and get her that digital camera she's always wanted?
Amazing compact storage - Review written on October 21, 2008

Works like a charm! The MicroSD card really is the size of a fingernail and it really works. My order did come with the adapter. I popped the MicroSD card into the SD adapter, popped that into my Dell laptop, dragged and dropped a bunch of music files into the card, put the card into my Blackberry Curve 8330. The Curve took a little while booting back up and recognizing the media files, but I'm listening to it now, and the quality on the speaker is decent - it sounds better with earphones. Amazing! I could have saved my money and not bought my Sandisk Sansa 4GB. Oh well.

Two tiny gripes - it's hard getting the microSD card out of the adapter, and it's kind of a pain having to remove the battery to install the card into the back of the Blackberry. But I can definitely live with that. Incidentally, all my music files are WMA, and the Blackberry has no problems with that file format. I'm assuming it would be fine with AAC and MP3 also.

Bottom line - amazing! How do they pack that much storage into that small a card?

I Have A Sansa Fuze That You Can Add Up To 8 More Gigabytes
And On The Sandisk Website It Costs 100 Dollars But Here It's 22 Two
That Is AMAZING Considering this is how much a 2 gigabyte card cost

Great card! It works for the device I bought it for flawlessly. For the price this card is it's a steal. Comes with a normal SD Card adapter for use in other items as well. However, it does not come with a microSD USB adapter, so you will need to buy one separately if you don't have one already, obviously. Buy this right now!

Love the product, works great with my sansa view, but I was expecting to get an unopened package from amazon with an adapter like the description says. When I bulk ordered this item with my new Sansa View I ended up ordering it with a reseller. I was also expecting it to come with everything I've seen other micro SD cards come with. Like an SD Adapter so I can slip it into my DVD player but no luck there either. It's just the micro SD card and the small plastic case.

Picture with a class 4 and a description for a class 2, so? - Review written on September 22, 2008

Do I have to buy looking at the picture of the item or reading the description, both are differents, while the picture says Class 4, the descrition says is a class 2, meaning Class 4 a speed of 4mb of transfer vs. just 2mb. It's a big difference....

I installed this in my Blackberry Curve so I could store plenty of large pictures and videos. My phone is able to write to this card faster than it's own internal flash memory, which means I can take multiple pictures with almost no wait time between. Amazingly small and yet so massive in storage.

This product worked exactly as described. It was OEM, so no packaging. It does include the SD adapter (also by SanDisk) and a little clamshell case with a hinge and snap closure.

If you don't keep tabs on your MicroSD card, you'll lose it! It works perfectly in my Samsung BlackJack II (after upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.1 from 6.0 as shipped).

8 Gigabytes of flash in a package as small as your little finger's nail? And so inexpensive? Amazing.

It works fine in my Sprint Mogul (HTC PPC-6800). Good read/write speeds when I tested it on my computer.

Having 8 Gigabytes on my cell phone is utterly blow away. Install this card, buy a couple of extra batteries and the next time you're stuck at an airport, strain your eyes watching movies on your cell phone! Or listen to a lot of music or audio books.

Be careful when purchasing. Some SKUs include only the card. Others have SD adapters included. If you don't already have a microSD to SD adapter, make sure you get one. Also remember that most older laptops will not recognize flash drives of more than 2 GB, so you may need yet another adapter to handle these microSDHC cards.

Finally, make sure the device you plan on installing this microSDHC card in can handle it. Lots of cell phones and music players thast accept microSD cards will not properly use a microSDHC card.

Now I want a 16GB microSDHC at a reasonable price.

Great but Beware your Card Reader - Review written on September 08, 2008

This card works brilliantly in my LG enV 2 cell phone. It formatted instantly and I was playing music and shooting photos and video immediately. HOWEVER, the only reader that could explore it was the built-in on my new Dell Notebook. Cards over 4GB require a downloadable fix from MS for older machines to read them. Even so, some card readers still aren't able to decipher the 8GB cards. Well worth the fix to have that much music on my LG enV2.

FWIW, the card I received was a class 4 (the good one).

Although you can save money by buying bulk products like this, watch the shipping charges. Many companies like lowering the base cost of the item and then charging unreasonable "shipping" charges. So if you wanted to buy, say, four of these items, it would cost roughly twenty five dollars because the shipping charge is really part of the price. The Kinston SDMicro is a valuable resource for anyone who has a device that can take them. But be careful. Not all devices take 8GB. I put one of these in a Sandisk mp3 player and it only registered as a 4GB.

Hopefully Amazon will one day carry these so we don't have to buy them from marketerring cheap skates. I have to give this four stars, because it does what it's supposed to; but I don't have to like the way they sell it.

Wow! We finally can get 8 GB of storage on one of these tiny little MicroSD cards! And, this is a Class 4, which is really fast! These are really handy, because I can use them to transfer files between my cell phone, laptop, computer, and other devices! (Have to use adapters for some).

I was amazed at the speed! This thing is VERY fast, and does not make me wait forever to transfer large files to it! I was very excited about that!

The price is INSANELY low! I was very excited to see such a great item at such a low price! This is definitely a good buy!

All is well, 8GB for $30 is awesome. If you can order from Bayside Electronic, he includes the SD adapter as well (says in his extra comments about this product). Had to update drivers on my Gateway laptop to read the SDHC card with it's builtin card reader, but after that works just fine.

others have written that it includes an adapter; mine DID NOT come with one but i am still satisfied as this little thing is class 4 fast. have had it for the summer and it is still only half full. as for the bulk packaging -- it means they just send it to you in the holder; no blister packs or shrink wrap, none of that just in an envelope.

I bought this via Amazon and it came with an adapter, I was amazed at that. I thought I was going to have to get one. This thing works great in my BlackBerry 8330 Curve. I did format it in my PC first as suggest on some websites, but once in the phone it added it's own folders. I then removed it and copied my music from the PC to the card via a card reader, it was faster. Put it back in and I have music on my phone. This is a great buy.

The disc works as promised, but Amazon suggests the purchase of the microSDHC WITH an mini adapter at a price of $35.64. However, this microdisc package COMES with both a mini and standard adapter--a great deal that should be explicitely described. I don't know if that is the meaning of "bulk package," but I assumed it did not come with a mini adapter when I saw that Amazon suggested the purchase of the two together. Because of Amazon's suggestion I bought an unnecessary mini adapter for $5.65 and incurred extra shipping costs since it came from another seller. I am hoping Amazon will reimburse me, since it is not the second seller's fault that I didn't know I didn't need their adapter.

Just wanted to say that this particular card works GREAT with my Nokia n95-3. Just slide it in, format, and you've got 8 gigs of free memory.

One con: the large adapter that the thumbnail-sized memory card slides in to didn't work for me. Hopefully everyone else's works.
