Default Which store to buy SD card at NOW?

My Treo 650 froze up since I have no SD card.
I took a movie and it keeps rebooting up but won't stay on.
The message says to delete files but I can't do that at all and am guessing once I buy an SD card I can work the Treo to function properly.
I need to buy today, but don't know which SD card to look for spec wise or which stores have a good buy. I'd prefer to buy online but don't have the time.
I'm thinking of Costco, but perhaps someone else buy a card recently.
I probably will buy 1-2 GB.

thanks!

It sounds like your movie used up all the available RAM on your device. You may need to hard reset to get your Treo working again.
An SD card by itself, while a good idea if you're planning to play around with the camcorder, won't help you in this case.

Any electronics store Best Buy, Comp USA etc... I bought mine at Radio shack. They have the name brand cards and generic cards that was 1/2 the price. I bought the cheap one and it works great. I would get a 1 gig at least. You will need a program like filez to move files to your card and/or delete files from your treo.

The speed of the card and bells and whistles don't make any difference. The card for the treo is just a storage area.

If you don't have a program like filez to delete the files from your treo you may have to do a hard reset like Kreth stated earlier.

Can you Sync??? If you can maybe you can delete the movie from your folder on the pc and set the pc to overwrite the treo. That may delete the files....I have never preformed that type of sync though.

Just don't buy off of eBay.
There have been thousands of counterfeit SD cards mostly labelled as Sandisk. I bought one myself on eBay and was lucky to get a refund. But took me 2 months.
I ended up buying from a reputable store. In my case www.newegg.com
Great price and service. But Costco, Radio Shack, Best Buy, Frye's etc are all good.

I bought a 2GB SD card from CompUSA on sale for $69.
I just need to figure out now how to transfer all data onto the card and free up the phone's memory.
Are there any sticky's or posts on this?

Good deal on your card. Be sure to format it in the Treo. Here's a recent thread about moving apps/files. Hope this helps.
