Customer Review: Works great, Mac compatible, Sansa compatible, FAT-16

This 2GB microSD card and USB adapter do the trick. I can plug the adapter into my OS X Mac and read and write the card quickly and without issues. The card is formatted as FAT-16, so just about anything should be able to read it. My SanDisk Sansa e260 MP3 player does. A good price for the combination of card and adapter. The adapter doubles as a handy storage place for the fingernail-sized card, since it is large enough to not lose easily.

Customer Review: Good value despite flaw

Wow, it's almost impossible to remove a microSD chip from my USB microSD Reader. A girlfriend tried and gave up. Took me at least a minute, once I came up with a technique - push out while wiggling side to side. Without the technique- it was simply impossible to make it budge.

But for the $13 price I paid at a local retailer, I can't complain much. I was surprised that my Samsung SYNC recognized it. (I haven't checked to see if it can access all 2GB.)
