2GB SD flash cards announced

Colin Dunstan · 12-07-2004, 05:22 AM

ATP Electronics announced that it has developed a 2GB Secure Digital card, which is now ready for mass production by OEMs.

The new cards will be the highest capacity SD cards on the market, doubling the current 1GB record, and offering a good performance of up to 10MB/s (that's fast, but not the fastest on the market).

ATP's 2GB SD cards will be priced at a MSRP of $249 (though the price might vary depending on the OEM).

I guess that means finally more room for my digital photos, medical records, MP3s, and Divx videos!

With 1GiB SanDisk brand SD cards selling for under $60.00/USD new, I'd rather have 4GiB in 4 SD cards for the same price as 1 2GiB SD card.

Granted, the prices will drop by next Christmas, but why wait?

hacker you hit it on the head, would love to have some 2gig sd cards but the cost of the 1 gig are dropping so fast, I will wait for the 2 gig prices to drop dramatically before I buy.
