I was delighted when SD cards came out – it was a handy size that was to be a standard for everything ranging from Pocket PCs to cameras. Well, that didn't exactly turn out to be correct, since no sooner than I got comfortable with the concept I got a new phone, and my precious SD card collection would not fit, since the phone incorporated a miniSD. Well, it has gotten worse since then, thanks to the micro SD card becoming popular.
What can you do to keep up? Well, Kingston has released a 4GB and 8GB set that includes a micro SD memory card with adapters that allow it to work in place of a mini and full size SD card. Not only do you get a little protection from buying incompatible memory cards for the next gadget, but you also get the ability to easily move data between otherwise incompatible memory slots .
The 4GB version package is priced at $22, and the 8GB is $40. Not bad for a little compatibility security, at least until the Ultra Micro SD card comes out.
