Comments on: Garmin iQue 3000 Update and Video

Sandisk has that new line of iPod Nano-esque MP3 players with good amounts (4/6gb+) of flash onboard but they crippled 'em with MicroSD for external storage instead of regular SD.

Right NOW the biggest problem Sandisk should be concerned with is getting SDHC devices & cards finalized & onto store shelves. There's rampant consumer misinformation & widespread device incompatability and manufacturer apathy with SD cards 1gb in size & larger.

MANY older SD devices cannot use cards larger than 512mb. Many more cannot see 2gb cards. And nearly all existing SD peripherals cannot read or write 4gb cards despite their availability from numerous manufacturers for sub-$100 prices.

With issues like that at hand with conventional, MicroSD(formerly TransFlash) is overpriced & too fragile. It's not even designed for regular insertion & removal. Boo to Garmin for crippling their iQue with no Bluetooth & no full size SD slot!
