Great performance, stunning price
You just can't go wrong at this price. It is amazing how a fast memory card transforms a camera - it really does make a huge difference. Already had a 2gb version of this in our previous camera, this new 4gb has just gone in our new TZ5 and it is possible to set the camera in infinite burst mode, hold down the button, and it just goes on forever taking a picture about...

Confusing stock situation
I bought two of these cards from Amazon direct a couple of weeks ago and got the excellent 30MB/s version with no card reader etc which is exactly what I was hoping for, and as per the other reviews.
I purchased an additional card direct from Amazon this week and received the older 133x version but with the card reader, recovery software and little carrying...
You just can't go wrong at this price. It is amazing how a fast memory card transforms a camera - it really does make a huge difference. Already had a 2gb version of this in our previous camera, this new 4gb has just gone in our new TZ5 and it is possible to set the camera in infinite burst mode, hold down the button, and it just goes on forever taking a picture about every 0.5 - 0.75 seconds, it never slows down. Amazing speed from this card. It does indeed come with a dinky little USB reader and a carrying pouch and a CD with recovery software. Don't hesitate, just buy it!!!

First off this card is very good . it's fast , reliability is sound and it's good value . if you buy one you will not be disapointed . Second: If you want the USB reader and a CD with recovery software make sure you check the listing fully . I thought thats what i had ordered but i only got the card . there is one with the USB reader and recovery software with it and you will find it here " Sandisk 4gb Extreme 3 SDHC Card in retail packaging " . It was my own fault for not reading the listing carefully !!! . This was still a good buy at £13.84 and it gets 5 STARS ..

I bought this as a sort of after thought--along with some other items I needed. Great value, great performance, and integrates well. If you haven't tried the Sandisk Extreme III SD 4GB Card, the you don't know what you're missing. Why get just one? This is one of the few products that I've actually recommended to my friends. You can't go wrong for the price and size of this little baby.

At its current price, this looks a real bargain and it's quite a lot more economical than the 2GB version. I used two of these card during a recent holiday, each could hold around 1000 10 megapixel photos (JPEGs at the highest-quality quality setting on my D60). This makes it possible to shoot a lot more shots than I would have previously done (perhaps not good discipline, I know) and what's more economic to keep the photos on the card instead of re-using them. The only problem is that you end up with so many pictures on the card that at some time the picture on the card become more 'valuable' than the camera - at least, a lot harder to replace, so I stopped using the cards before they were full.

Excellent transfer speed for it's class and good value at the price. I take wedding photo's (hence a need for quality and reliability!) with Sandisk cards and cannot praise them enough. Havne't lost any data or had any problems in over 40,000 frames.

I got this for use in my Canon IXUS 85 IS and I so far have to report it's been flawless. 4GB for under £15 - that's just amazing! I just had to add another five star review to the bunch - if you need a 4GB SD memory card get this one! Make sure your camera supports SDHC memory cards, though.

I bought this to go in my canon dslr and am very satisfied. I've been laughing non-stop at the guy that paid 450 quid for it though, lol lol lol lol lol.

This is an awesome card without a doubt! But beware as mine didn't come with a 'dinky little card reader' as reading some of these reviews you might expect (i.e. previous 20MBPS version did come with case, reader & software) this confusion for me totally defeated the point of buying it for use as a fast memory stick which is expandable - doh! Regardless it is still an amazing card and the latest formula 1 edition too :) NOTE: PLAY still offer the previous version with the benefits for the same price so its a matter of how fast you wanna go ;)
