From the time of ordering this item which is very difficult to obtain, exactly what I required was delivered within the time stated. Excellent service. Many thanks.

I bought this a few month ago. It was delivered quickly.
Fujifilm xD card works with my Olympus carmea but it does not support its panoroma shooting.

type H is 1/3 faster than type M
12 April 2007
Type H is noticeably faster than type M when taking pictures in RAW mode on my Fuji S6500. It takes 7.9 seconds with type M but only 5.2 seconds with type H. That makes type H about 1/3 faster in the write mode than type M.
I haven't tried timing it in the read mode (downloading pictures from camera to computer), but I expect similar time advantage with type H.
One thing may concern someone using it to take movies is the little warning on the back of the shrink wrapped case that says this chip may cause interruptions when recording movies in the 640 x 480 pixel mode. I don't recall seeing the same warning on my 1 GB type M chip. On the other hand, I used the 2GB type H chip to take an uninterrupted movie with no problem using up the full 2 gigabytes for one movie. But I have not been able to download the 2GB movie file to my computer from my camera. Even when the computer has plenty of free storage, downloading the 2GB file repeatedly crashes the computer. I can not state with certainty what the culprit is, whether it's the camera, the type H chip, or the Fuji FinePix software.
Also the instruction for the chip says it must be initialized using the intialization function of your camera. I take this to mean don't rely on the initialization function of a card reader to be compatible with your camera's initialization requirements. I suspect some data loss problems some folks have reported with these xD chips (whether type M or type H) could be traced to their not having initialized the chip properly.
My 2 GB type H chip is made in Korea by Samsung. My 1 GB type M chip is made by Toshiba in Japan. Both are branded Fuji.

No difference in speed btw H and M for Fuji cameras
31 Jan 2007
I called Fujifilm technical support (1-800-800-3854, option #1) today and their tech support said there is no difference in speed between the H and M xD cards in-camera for Fuji cameras, including the F30, which is what I have. The Fuji rep also said that they do not sell Fuji H-speed cards in the U.S. for that very reason, and any cards sold in the U.S. are grey market, probably from Japan, and Fuji will not support these cards in the U.S. if they malfunction. Of course, Type H cards will be 2-3x faster once you take the card out of the camera, e.g., if you have a card reader and are downloading to your computer (but you will need to make sure your card reader reads H speed xd cards). Fuji did not think there would be a speed difference if downloading from your camera.
Update: The above review was written in January 2007, and Fuji now sells high capacity Type H xD cards in the U.S.

FAST xD Picture Card
7 Nov 2007
I use this card with my Fuji F31d pocket size camera. I was recently at a Wedding and noticed that nobody had thought to bring a video camera. So I set the little Fuji with this card in it to record 30FPS full frame (D1) NTSC video. The camera shot the entire ceremony, the cutting of the cake, etc. PLUS about 75 stills, all captured on this 2GB card without even one dropped frame. There wouldn't be a video of this event if I didn't have this card. A very fast card that gets the job done.
