Product codes are the same product!
FYI, this product, SDSDQR-8192-A11M, is the same as Sandisk 8GB MicroSDHC Memory Card w/ MobileMate Reader (SDSDQR-8192-E11M, Retail Package), the only difference is the region it was sent to. "A" being for America and "E" for Europe. The products are no different (spoke with Sandisk directly). Be aware that some sellers are selling the E11M for more $$$. Check your product code when product arrives to make sure you are getting what you ordered.
Works great on Blackberry curve 8310
Blackberry curve 8310 with 4.2 build recognize only 4gb. If you format this card in Curve you will get only 4gb. Format (ntfs) using Windows and then insert it into blackberry to use the whole 8 gb.
If I go to Options->Media Card -> mine says Total space available 7.5GB
Greatest card reader ever!!!
I bought this in place of a normal thumb drive. I once had a thumb drive that broke after a couple days of use and I lost all the data. Since then I have been using card readers, that way if I break the drive I still have the card. Also, in a couple of years when the SDHC cards get better SDHC card readers are upgradeable to 2 terabytes cards. It is a good system.
The round part of the card reader is almost the size of a dime and about 4 dimes thick and only 1.25 inches long. It is smaller then most of my keys. It fits even the tightest USB ports. It is so small, I don't even notice it on my key chain.
The only down side I could think of is that the USB port doesn't have a dust cover. Currently, I have not gotten any dirt in their but it could happen. Even if they did include one I wouldn't use it anyway.
