There is not much difference in the read/write speed of a 60x card, or the difference in read/write on a 133x card. However, the 133x will read and write faster than a 60x. The speed of your device also makes a difference. If the read/write is 60x then it will not take advantage of the faster 133x, equally, if your device can read/write at 133x and you use a 60x card, the card will slow the data transfer down. _________________ Formerly known as Lost_Property

i have tested a slow one and a fast one.. there is no detectable difference in how the tomtom works.. so pretty much any old common or garden card will do..
