£100, makes sense since 4gb is around £50..

for the peeps in the US, same seller and item with the price in USD:

Looks like its still limited, only 3 or so listed and I think it's the same seller. In a month or so prices will drop slightly and more people will be selling them on ebay.

That 8 is sooo photoshoped on.

Yup, but I'll be looking forward to 4gb prices dropping further

And btw, if you search "8gb Sd" on Google News you will find articles like this

If it's only SDHC, it might not work with the GP2X at all, unless there is a converter... =(

The 8 is 'clean' white (ffffff), whilst all of the other letters are 'dirty' white (~f8f8f8). The 8 also has far less noise than all of the other characters. Actually, after looking at it, I think the whole front is photoshoped, but the 8 was added later and saved at a higher quality level than the previous version

Yup. Also Tom´s Harware Guide says that only pretec cards have 8 GB as of now, and this surely isn´t one.

Whoever buys it can be happy if it has 4 GB...

Seller says they are being released for delivery on august 25th. He might not have the actual cards yet. In any case, im sick of wasting money on the top capacity cards. I think i'll just get a 4GB now once they're cheaper.

I read somewhere that SD cards will eventually climb to 2TB. Good luck affording that :lol:

I bought my 2gb from this guy, and he's pretty reputable. I wouldnt worry.

Capacity limit in all SD/MMC formats appears to be 128 GB in LBA mode (28-bit sector address).
