Memory Card - Treo Forums

Hi Everyone

Well I got my Treo 700-wx today and I think it was a wonderful upgrade. Now that I am an official Treo geek, now comes the question, I am shopping on ebay for a memory card and I am not sure what size to get. Will a 700w SD card fit because I can't find a SD Card on ebay for a 700-wx. I'm guessing it has the same size slot?

Hello boneslapper2002,

This is Kevin from Palm. Congrats on your new Treo

. SD cards are not phone make/model specific, so a given SD card will work in any device that has an SD slot. There are other types of storage cards, of course, like mini SDs, MMCs and CFs, etc, but a regular SD card is what you want. The Treo 700wx supports 2 GB cards. A 4 GB card can work as well, but do a search here for what brands of 4 GB cards are known to work in the 700wx before you purchase one.
Finally, not something to be overly concerned about, but I'd stick with a known brand name and take care in who you choose to purchase it from. There are a few unscrupulous dealers out there who may be selling counterfeit cards. Just a precaution and there are details on how to identify bad cards in the Palm Knowledge Library article SD expansion slot damaged by SD card.

Sincerely
Kevin

Yeah, please let us know which SD did you get. Also, I'm looking into getting a 700WX next weekend--Hopefully, they will be a sale at Sprint on "Black Friday"....I'll let you know!!!

Another question: How is your 700WX?? I just wanted to find out all the good stuff from a woman's point of view---since we store and use a lot of applications---no offense to men!!!
