Have a look at the list here:
http://www.mytomtomgo.com./special_faq.php#77 The cards are the same for all GOs that take the card. Full size SD - not a mini SD.

Pricing is very competitive for SD cards. I got mine from http://www.mymemory.co.uk/categories.php?id=17 but there are a lot of on-line suppliers.

Are you sure that a 256 card is big enough? It will probably be OK if you just want some spare memory for safety, but it won't take another map unless it's one of the smaller countries or the plus map of GB.

I recomend that you go (no pun intended) for at least a 512 SD Card, difference is price is very little and the extra space you get will give you loads of room for all the bits and bobs you will eventuly add.

Hi there - I've recently upgraded my TTG SD card to a 1gb version - I bought this from a guy on eBay for the princely sum of £39.75 (DELIVERED) - ordered in on the Sunday - arrived on the Tuesday - backed up my old SD card - copied all the files over to the new card and hey presto - works a dream - also upgraded to 5.1 while I was at it...........

sparkey-b, I take it there are no problems with TTG reading 1 Gig Card, I am sure I read somewhere that some people were unable to read higher than 512 even though they had a 1 Gig Card.

The limit is said to be 4 GB. But there are only 2Gb available at the moment. My 1GB card has been working for a couple of months with no problem.

Well I guess a few people must have had faulty 1 gig SD Cards.
512 will do me for now, thanks for the Info.

I see Mymemory have put up the price of the Kingston 512mb card on their website

BUT

If you visit their Ebay shop you can still get one for £17.99 (plus £3.95 for delivery) Just bought one for my digital camera arrived in 3 days. Smile
