5.0 out of 5 stars IBM's little wonder, 28 Oct 2003
By A Customer
Just go and get it if you have a digital camera that will take it. Room for nearly 400 high quality photos from a Canon D10. I have had one for nearly two years and just about to buy a second. Pricey maybe but does the business!

5.0 out of 5 stars 1Gb on a stamp ..., 22 Feb 2004
By Colm (Dublin, Ireland) - See all my reviews
Excellent ... wouldn't be without it on my Fuji S602Zoom. A must if you want to take any video. Looking forward to getting a second one, which says it all.
