1 GB memory card tried and tested

[Barn]

The 1 GB Pretec MMC memory card has now finally been tested on an N-Gage, along with 256 MB and 512MB, and they have all passed the initial compatibility tests. Which is great news as we will all be able to get even more music and videos on our N-gages’.

Huh? well, that's great news!!!

But how much does it cost???

HAHAHA :lol:

It's very very expensive...

[gophermaster]

It costs over $1000 here in Australia. Hehe. More than double for what I paid for my N-Gage.

[tzeonn]

maybe soon, our ngage will become a ipod too, lol.

[gophermaster]

Lol. One can only wish. Hehe.

[maxice5000]

god 1GB MMC costs twice as much as my phone

[leespud]

rather pay the extra £100 and get a 40gb iPOD my self 256 is enough for me

[nk_au]

Has it been tested on a Nokia 6600?

A 256MB MMC Card is now such a good price on Ebay AU. Makes me wonder why some people sell 32, 64 and 128MB MMC Cards.

One 512MB MMC Card has appeared on Ebay AU, and the price is reasonably ok. Less than double the price of the 256MB one.

But the 1024MB MMC Card! I dream of having this one. Could have so much movies, music, applications and games! But on www.expansys.com.au ... you can preorder it for over AUD$1000! Holy crap! How many phones can I buy with that money lol :lol:

Guess have to wait for competitors and the price decreases because very few people buy it :D

[gophermaster]

Hehe Yeah, 3 N-Gages for that much.

[nk_au]

Yea. 3 N-Gages ...

I'm either going to save money and not buy it, or save up money and buy it when it's dropping :D

[tzeonn]

well, y not get multiple 256 and save money? hehehe. troublesome, but the price is really too ex.

[Pou_pee]

well, y not get multiple 256 and save money? hehehe. troublesome, but the price is really too ex.

BTW do I need to upgrade the firmware to accept 256MB and up?
I've just bought a 256MB "Ridata" and it dun seem to work perfectly!
Now my PC dun see the MMC drive on my N-gage anymore (only with this card in!) :sad:
Think I'm gonna have to return it

ps. my current FW is 3.30

cheers.

[opcmaroone15]

wow $1000 bucks yea right, with that money i can buy computer accessories, or even a brand comp for few more $100's or laptop. too expensive for that 1 gb mmc they lower the prices on these mmc's.

[angelico_36]

if your in no hurry id wait a few months or so it'll eventually go down hehehe 256mb MMC is big already unless you dont have a pc , television and a vcd , vhs , dvd player at home and your cellphone is your only source of entertainment.

[gophermaster]

Yeah, $1000 is pretty pricey. But it's new technology see...

[hillbillyI]

don't worry, prices will drop, anywayz, i wouldn't buy one yet
just my 2 cents

[Cigarcutter]

Hi im a German NGage user,

I have the 512 MB from "Extreme Memory" its ok,

format the card before using with the NGage and have fun!

[x0wner]

sniff sniff I have only 16meg card :( I WANT 1GB card!!!! :D

[gophermaster]

Hehehe, you should upgrade to a 128mb MMC minimum. You can get them fairly cheap nowadays. I don't know how you can fit stuff on a 16mb MMC... :lol:

[[R]ubow]

Wow! Good news...

But I'll rather buy 2, 512Mb cards than 1, 1Gb card...because it's so small that anyone can miss placed it... (happened to me once... found it in the laundry room lol...)

By the way, it's safer to have 2 cards then one just in case anything might happen to one of them...

Cheers! :-P

[v7e6j5]

I would rather buy a 512mb mem. card 4 $200.00+, cause a $1000.00 1gb mem. card is just 2 crazy 2 even phantom.

[bogu]

$1000 for an mmc? $500 for the n-gage? Crazy prices... check out eBay...

[yuppo]

I got a 1Gb, 20Mbps mmc on ebay for £55 including postage, I could've got an even cheaper one but I wanted the fastest transfer rate I could find.

[Durden]

Yuppo, my brother bought a memory card (512Mb) for his 6630 and it doesn't recognise it..... DO u have a list of the ones that work and the ones that don't, and their sizes....

[yuppo]

The only ones that work are offical Nokia 32 and 64Mb rsmmcs, the 1Gb card was for my Ngage.

[Durden]

So you don't know if the third party cards work?

[yuppo]
