    This seadog knows 'tis many such topics afloat on this board. But I'm a scratchin' me head wit me hook tryin' ta figure which flash cart ta cast me lot with. So help a laddy decide.

    I'm a considerating the following carts:

    CycloDS
    AceKard
    DSTT

    So why should a rapscallion like me self go with the high end cart over the bargain carts? I'm findin' meself mighty tempted to go with teh bargain? So which carts shoul walk ye old plank and wich one should I add to me crew?

    Mighty grateful and obliged for all ye comments!

    I think generally any of those are good (im sure AJ will correct me if not), but ive heard good things about the CycloDS, I think the main rule is stay away from R4 lol.

    Yes any of those will do, preferably Cyclo or Acekard. If you want to cheapest (decent too), go for the DSTT.

    Me heartfelt thanks, boyos. Me bones are leanin' twords acquiring the AceKard. But I regrets that this poor ole' brain o' mine need further enlightenment. Here be my predicament:

    I'm a wee bit dazed and confused with what kind o' card the AceKard be requirin'. The AceCard specs say it supports the SDHC TF card. Be this card the same as a OEM SDHC Class 4 MicroSD/TF Flash Memory Card (8GB)?

    Here be teh link for me AceKard:

    Here be me link for teh cards I be considerin':

    http://www.dealextreme.com/search.dx/search.4G%20SDHC%20TF

    Which o' the cards be compatible with the AceKard? Methinks I'll go for teh 4G or 8G card. Me poor brain is a hurtin' from all this card jargon. Promotions for any lad who can answer me question. For that matter, promotions for any lass who can answer me questions too. Would give me a reason to comb out me beard.

    SDHC is a standard, and TF (transflash) is the proper name for microSD cards, so yes that card is compatible (OEM just means its sold under the name of the company that made it, i.e it hasn't been bought in bulk by another company and rebranded). RomUlation recommends that you only buy Sandisk or Kingston microSD cards as these ones have the highest rom compatibility
