Cheapest 4gb Card Ever, Help

[Troy the Great]

Can anyone tell me for sure if this card will work in the Gp2x:
4gb card

^<I know some of you have ordered this card from 7dayshop. This is one of the best 4gb card prices I have every seen.

Also, do you know anything about these two cards and if they are a better choice then the top one I listed: 4gb card #2 4gb card #3

Thank you for all your help

Read this http://wiki.gp2x.org/wiki/SD_card_compatibility
Especially the part:
"It seems this table has been rendered obsolete by the 2.1.x firmware, which seems to support any card which conforms to the original SD standard. At current firmware (2.1.1) GP2X does not support the new SDHC format SD cards, which is what most 4Gb or larger (8gb, 32Gb, etc) cards are. Read more about the SD Association's standards at http://www.sdcard.org/"

All card listed by you are SDHC, so I guess they won't work. It says nothing about firmware 3.0.0 however, so I don't know.
Let someone more familiar give an opinion too.
Cheers.

Thanks for your help. Are there any firmwares(like 2.0?) that support sdhc(And the card I listed)?

4gb gp2x topic (this is where I got my original info from.)

Yes, you can install SDHC support.

 

[Troy the Great]

Install? What do you mean by that?

 

[shinneri]

Yes, you can install SDHC support.

Isn't that experimental at this point?

If you are interested in SDHC support there are two things to know about. The first is the "patch" described here:

Also, check out the Open2X project. They are making a custom, community driven firmware that will have SDHC support built in:

It seems to work fine with 8gig cards (for me anyway).

I found some of those ADATA 8Go SDHC class 6 at 75$ (43,5£/65€).
I'm waiting this card to arrive.
