    What size MiniSD card are you using? I got a great recommendation to not necessarily get an 8gb and to consider a 4gb. However it seems a bit harder to get a 4gb than a 2gb. Any thoughts on 2gb and being enough for pictures and ringtones.

    I hope to use the MiniSd for storing photos and ringtones that I want to set for some contacts. Not looking for a iPod replacement.

    i think most bb's use a micro sd card, not the mini.

    That being said i have a 2gb and it has 529 songs on it. i have a few mb's left over for saving pics. i tend to take pics and send them off to photobucket so i'm not sure how many i could store with my music. i know i can have at least 10 on there np.

    i don't think ringtones take that much memory.

    I have 2 GB card (formatted to 1.9GB) and i have about 30 ringtones, and 10 pictures, plus a bunch of e-books and i still have 1.8 GB free on my card....

    and I think it's actually less than the .1 GB it suggests, but the way it rounds, it's hard to say exactly. Either way, I should be able to fit far more ringtones and pictures on a 2+ card than is manageable. So i think you're fine with a 2 instead of a 4 or 8.

    I would have bought a smaller card if cost was prohibitive...but the 2 was only $10 shipped.

    note: i now see you are asking about mini-SD, and i have a micro-SD card. fyi.

    I found the Micro SDHC on Amazon. It looks right. However, my BB Curve box from verizon say's Micro SD not Micro SDHC... Is this the same thing?

    Thanks!

    Get what you can afford, it's not much more for an 8g over a 4. With docs2go and i'm sure future apps, your card will become more useful.
    Plus in the BB community, movies and TV shows are readily available, kinda a nice time killer.
    Amazon.com has some smokin prices also...

    I have 4 Gig! I think that's plenty for what I use it for.
