I have an 8g now, the bold can handle 32g if you can find one.

Agreed, i heard OS 4.6 is up to 16 but either way, i have a 8gb SDhc in my bold and it works perfectly
Hi all
Like the other posters just put my 8GB Sandisk SDHC card straight in formated and it works perfectly as should both the 16GB and 32GB when they are released.

Well, that makes me feel a bit foolish for paying near �30 for the same card a couple of weeks ago. That'll teach me to not make hasty high street purchases.
A question about the formatting though: I just chucked mine straight in and it worked. All this talk of formatting and 'installing' the card...??
Same here put the card itn. Card detected. Space available. Uploaded porn...i mean word and spreadsheets and it worksA question about the formatting though: I just chucked mine straight in and it worked. All this talk of formatting and 'installing' the card...??

no formating
Those that 8G MicroSD are pretty damn expensif though I paid 80$ for mine. I still bought one but damn when then 32G hits im sure it will sell for like over 150$ which would be insane in my opinion
Card seems to come either 'pre-formated' or the phone formats right away when you insert the card as an 8GB card's capacity is around 7.4GB empty when in the phone..
thanks a lot guys! just bought it from amazon! AMAZING:)...hope there will be a 16GB or even 32 GB soon:)
Ebay is your friend..... Got my 8Gb for $27 shipped

I've got one in my Bold and it works perfectly (I was using it in my Curve with no issues previously too).
Hi Dogmann - fancy seeing you here LOL
SanDisk 8GB microSDHC works fine in my Bold, no formatting required.
Seen a few ads like this one for pre-orders, some quoting October delivery, but given nothing shown on Sandisk's website I will believe it when I see it.:rolleyes:
Any one got any other news on this?
D'oh forgot to give link!

Hi all,
Sorry for causing any confusion but my 8GB Sandisk card was not new and was previously being used in my Nokia E90 and that is why i reformatted it in the Bold. But a new card is normally formatted once you insert it in a new device anyway as it puts all the folders you need there is my understanding of how it usually works.

Hi guys Bold in tomorrow!!!
Whats the difference between class 4 and 6?
Is it speed? If so is it a noticeable difference?
Just bought a sandisk SDHC ultra 8gb and it does not work in the bold. Have the lastest OS and 8gb works on PC, Any clues?
Nevermind, just needed a reboot......:)
Uhoh
That doesnt sound good Ive already ordered mine :s .... is it a class 4 or 6 SDHC?
what OS are you running
This table is fairly accurate but I put the number of 32Gb for the Bold when I had read rumors that 32Gb was going to be supported. This seemed reasonable to me when I wrote my post http://forums.crackberry.com/f2/micr...c-cards-46673/.
Recently I read this review of the Bold Hands-On with the New BlackBerry Bold - News and Analysis by PC Magazine that clearly says that the Bold will support 16Gb of Media Card.
I now believe that 16Gb capacity is for sure bt I am now not sure about 32Gb.
Wait and see seems to be the only way right now. Until we can buy a 32Gb microSDHC card (even Calss 2) there is just no way to know.

What is better a class 4 or 6?
It depends on what you are doing. Thre's a link in my post http://forums.crackberry.com/f2/micr...c-cards-46673/ here eBay Guides - What is SDHC Card What's the difference with normal SD that explains the differences.
Class 2 seems to be suficient for oir BlackBerry needs and will be cheaper than Classes 4 and 6 but I have not tested all the calsses.
