 Terrific Card! July 8, 2008

I bought the card and reader to use with a new Canon FS100 camcorder and it works perfectly. I have had no problems with the card, it is fast and it loads on both my Vista Laptop and IMac.

Watch out for early death on these cards. I put mine in a Canon XSi and did a low-level format - worked fine. Took some shots, put the card in the USB connector, sucked all the pics off, deleted them, then put the card back in the camera. Camera doesn't think there's a card in it. Tried a low level format: no dice. Plug back into USB connector and back into PC - PC won't recognize card exists, no way, no how. All in less than a week.
Bought a second card, ran the same sequence except I used the camera to delete all pictures, not the PC. Everything seems to be working fine after 3 days. Will update if any change.
GOOD BUY - Transcend 16GB SDHC + Compact Card Reader July 4, 2008
ALBERTO VARGAS (COSTA RICA, CENTRAL AMERICA)
This product gives the versatility of a SDHC card that can be used in lots of devices like Digital Photo Cameras, some MP3 players, and others.
(Just be sure your device supports the newer SDHC format, many only support the older lower capacity SD).
Also, when used with the Compact Card reader, it can be used like if it were a USB memory stick, altough because of the way the SDHC card is inserted on the reader, it's not to be used in agressive environments or applications.
Read/Write speeeds are up to its Class 6, which are good enough for me.
16 GB is a LOT of storage space! Almost four DVD's full of files can be stored in this little piece of plastic/silicon.
Have used this product for a couple of weeks without problems, but it's still too early to judge its long term reliability.
Overall, I think that the price per GB, the speed and the convinience makes it a good value.
Watchout for ordering from Thememstore! July 3, 2008

The item is great! However the vendors and service...
First, Thememstore doesn't sell this product as displayed. Instead they sent the memory chip plus an additional USB adapter - one with 2 plastic covers instead of the compact kind shown here in the pictures.
Second, their shipping took 10 days to get out of OR, let alone get to me! Amazon claims they have an a-to-z guarantee, but their claim form doesn't give the option of claiming it was delivered late (or what the result of that would be).
Thirdly, the price for this product was volatile when I ordered - I purchased the product from Amazon for maybe 75 bucks, then a month later ordered it again and Amazon didn't have it but Thememstore did, and for more than 10 less, but with required shipping costs. Ah, technology.
Next time I'll definitely wait until Amazon has it back in stock!
Great Capacity, Great Price June 30, 2008
midnight821 (Middlesboro, KY USA)
I usually purchase Sandisk or Lexar memory cards, but I needed some major capacity for my new Canon TX1 and the other manufacturers had not come out with a 16GB version or were priced too high. So at first I doubted the quality of the Transcend 16GB SDHC card, but I have to say all of my concerns have been lifted away. I will likely buy more Transcend products in the future.
The TX1 can eat up memory, but these cards keep me going. I bought two of them. They work great with camera and the transfer speed on downloads is great. Highly recommended.
