LINKAGEIt has been up for about a week now . But I just got mine and tested it and it works great with the GP2X . It is really fast too .
And I have not seen many other 2gb cards this cheap .

Yeah that's the one I got, I think I paid 108 or so, it was a few months ago.
2 gig isn't enough though, I've bought a few 1 gig and 512 meg cards since then.

Do you think one of these will work on the GP2X?
Or is 2GB the maximum it can handle.

I don't think it supports 4GB YET. I'm sure it will be added later.

Ebay is evil, it may look like you are getting a good deal but you end up paying 5x as much on shipping as from a standard internet store.

I got a Ridata 2GB Pro for $99. No problems so far, all the way up to 1.2.1

Maybe stupid question, don't know, but here goes:
What if I format such a card as a 2GB?
I would only like to buy 1 card... as I will get my GP2X pretty soon I would like it to work AND last a while. Buying a 2GB now, AND a 4GB later is to costly for me.

Yeah, but I don't have paypal or a credit card

So I need to be able to pay with direct bank transfers and such

you can use your bank account with paypal, that's what I do.

What type of account do you have...
this is what mine says:

did you register a bank account?
are you a verified address yet?
Read the help on paypal or email the tech support if you can't find it on FAQ (pretty good)
