OK I have pearl 8130, I have OS V.4.5.0.131, My question is will a 8gb memory card work in it. I have heard that they will and they wont, so before I by one, I want to make sure that size will. I have a 4gb, in the BB now, but Its full with music, so I want to go bigger, to have from for videos and pics.
you should check the manual. I believe that 4gb is the max that it will hold. I have 4gb card and only keep the music that I absolutely love...& also carry a 16gb Ipod Nano for most other music I like.
I don't think that software updates will allow the reading of larger memory cards.
An 8Gb card will work just fine in your phone with that OS. There's a link in my signature that contains all the info you'll need on microSD cards. Have a look before you buy.
