I saw this too but I've read that the PNY is a really crappy card. Anyone have experience with this brand? At this price, it's almost worth experimenting.

The PNY is the slowest card I have ever tested.

My PNY SD 1GB is banished to a crappy old camera I hardly ever use.

sure the card is slow, but do you really need a super high speed card for the axim? for a camera yea you might want to avoid this, but for an axim this is perfect

I have found the PNY will not deliver video fast enough for good playback, slows down GPS operation, and makes music in games cut in and out.

If you use it for audio, e-books, etc. You won't notice the difference.

But I find the larger the card someone buys, the more demanding they are of speed because of the way they will use it.

Sandisk makes a very solid performing base card in the 1GB and 2GB size. If you are looking for a bargain, watch for good offers on these. When there's a deal, you won't pay any more than the PNY and you will get a higher quality card.

I am using a PNY 2GB SD card for video on a X51v. Seems to work fine for me.

You probably run less kb/s than I do for your videos.

For about 100 minutes of video I'm using 1GB of memory. VGA at 30 frames per second, and high quality audio.

True. I used the defaults with Fairuse. Video data rate 92Kbps, 23 fps. File size is 715K. Seems to look OK and play back smoothly though.

...don't you mean 715M? I tweak the default settings in Fairuse to get my movies down to around 210M to 240M... Still play fine in TCPMP...
