It currently holds 3369.04Mb but has held more. I use it for movies, music, and maps for Oziexplorer and Tom Tom. It's not what I supposedly bought but it has worked fine to date.

I haven't been able to find much if any information on incompatability, I've got a crappy taiwanese knockoff with a brandname that sounds like a dubbed japanese TV show I used to watch when I was a kid in the early seventies (shintaro) and it works fiiiiiine.The question I would ax is out of all the SD and CF cards manufactured, and used, how many are faulty on first use???????????
