128MB Memory cards and compatible phones
Posts: n/a with the 3300. http://www.nokia.com/nokia/0,5184,5987,00.html Some people have said that it can be placed in the N-Gage as well. What about the 6600 and other phones? Can someone hope that if a current or future phone takes the 64MB MC, it can also take th 128MB one?  Responses to "128MB Memory cards and compatible phones"

I take it you too are a bit p""d off with Nokia > > :-)) Ohh yess. the SD card slot on my PDA can quite happily accept me taking the card out whether the device is on or off, but nokia think its a good idea to hide the 'removable storage' behind the battery. makes it a little difficult to 'change the tape' in the middle of a busy high street. the extra nothing of thickness, and tiny part of programming that would have been needed to make the card read SD cards too, would make no difference. an SD card reader will happliy read MMC too, but an MMC reader is MMC alone. rather than kill two birds with one stone, nokia decide thay are better off giving one bird a minor concussion. the 3650 was quite a major dissappointment in many areas, so many better ways it could be done. but even the 6600 is not enough of an improvent to really warrant the upgrade. I'm due to upgrade between now and march (contract due in march, so maybe a handset advertised now will be available by then) but it is looking ever more likely that this will be my first phone in 5 years that isn't a nokia, and I'm not really looking forward to that. Guess I'm just too comfortable, and now I have the nokia equivalent of DVT :-) Martin Crosbie > "Martin Crosbie" <MartincrosbieDONTBOTHER@vodafone.net> wrote in message > news:bn44qa$7n5$1@newsg3.svr.pol.co.uk... > > > > "Constantine Mihailidis" <profwiz@hotmail.com> wrote in message > > news:wx4lb.48674$Zh.10180@tornado.fastwebnet.it... > > > Nokia's official site gives that the 128MB memory card is only > compatible > > > with the 3300. http://www.nokia.com/nokia/0,5184,5987,00.html > > > Some people have said that it can be placed in the N-Gage as well.

And since when has the 3650 worked with SD cards? I think you'll find that it works just fine with virtually any MMC cards you'd care to mention, but it does help if people use the correct hardware in the first place. -- >>> Unlock Your Phones Potential <<< >>> http://www.thephonelocker.co.uk <<< >>> http://www.uselessinfo.org.uk <<<
