Transcend Press Release

Transcend Information, Inc. releases 2GB high capacity mini SecureDigital (miniSD) flash memory card.  In order to meet the requirements of new high-spec cell phones such as the Nokia 6270, and 6280, the 80X Ultra-Performance high-speed miniSD cards (256MB~2GB) joins the ranks of the highest capacity miniSDTM cards in the world. Transcend miniSDTM cards have all the features and performance of standard SDTM cards, but are less than half the size.  This makes miniSDTM cards ideal for the next generation of multimedia cell phones and mobile devices, which are incorporating miniSDTM card slots into their design.  To ensure compatibility with SDTM devices, Transcend provides an adapter, which converts a miniSDTM card for use in SDTM card slots.  The adapter works by placing the smaller memory card into its respective case and treating the card plus adapter as an SD card.

Now you have the convenience of being able to save pictures, MP3 music, or MPEG 4 video clips all onto one tiny 2GB 80X miniSDTM Card, which you can use in your digital audio player, digital camera, mobile phone, smart phone, or PDA.

Having focused on the research and development of flash memory cards for many years, Transcend insists on only using original SLC (Single-Level-Cell) NAND Flash chips in its 80X miniSDTM Cards.  By testing many digital cameras and mobile phones, which have miniSDTM or SD card slots, Transcend’s 2GB 80X miniSDTM cards are fully compatible and attain optimal results from your Hi-Tech portable devices.
