MicroSD card gone bang

Think my MicroSD 16gb card has gone bang today, cant seem to get my XDA phone to read it now. ( i do need to double check it works or does not work in the SDHC reader adaptor when i find it ).

I have also reinstalled the shdc program on my phone again in case it lost it settings.

If has turned to toast, any ideas where is the cheapest & best offer for another 16gb MicroSD card asap.

Is there a 32gb card due out soon?

Thanks

I use
www.7dayshop.com
for memory cards and memory sticks. They are based in the Channel Islands, so no VAT. Delivery is usually quick and they are very helpful.

Another vote for 7Day Shop. Good range, quick delivery, keen prices and very good customer service.

Thanks, I got a 16gb one on order from the CPW in the end for £30 inc P&P.

Ive got my 8gb card out of retirement for a couple of days now.

Cheers

Well, looks like not even a year has passed and my 2nd 16GB SanDisk SDHC card has just gone capot.

I see the CPW have their own make 16GB for around £28 and there is an integral one on MM for around £32, seem reasonable.

I have also been looking at these 32GB cards on Fleabay, very unbranded and not much written up about them. Good value for around the £20 mark.
Anyone have any ideas if they are any good ( perhaps might last more then a year be nice ) and how they can sell them so cheap!

Cheers,

MPW

There goes another one!

How come these MicroSD cards dont seem to last long!?

Im now on a 16gb Integral card from MyMemory class 4, seems to be a bit more faster then the last one.

Well, I'm still using the MicroSD cards I bought fro 7DayShop.com with no issues at all.

Mind you, they are SanDisk and Kingston genuine ones.
