No here look http://androidforums.com/htc-desire/121050-going-buy-myself-16gb-sdhc-card.html#post1325669

I got this one - also from Play.com - and can confirm it's a pumped up class 2 card working at class 6 speeds.

I have ordered and will post results of the test when I comes

I'd bag one if it can handle the 720p recording without the video freezing.

He's referring to a PNY card not the sandisk in the op.

^ The OP links to the SanDisk one? As I've quoted below...

As already mentioned, class 2 may not be ideal for future intensive use.

How many people can vouch for this specific card?

they also have a Toshiba Micro SD High Capacity (MICROSD-HC) Memory Card - 16GB

A few people asked how it was working and their posts and my replies disappeared on the sever crash. So here is the same post again..

I got my card today (2 days ago, I never got the cheaper Toshiba card so can't test that one) and this is the results of the speed test.

Write speed is on par with class 6 standard:
$ dd count=1k bs=1M if=/dev/zero of=/media/100F-2656/test.tmp
1024+0 records in
1024+0 records out
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 151.603 s, 7.1 MB/s

Read speed is also not too bad:
$ sudo hdparm -t -T /dev/sdd
/dev/sdd:
Timing cached reads: 7524 MB in 2.00 seconds = 3764.71 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 60 MB in 3.02 seconds = 19.85 MB/sec

It's great can now get all my mp3's on and still have space, seems much faster than the stock card.

I've got a 16 gb, class 2 card and never, ever had issues with speed on the phone. Taking HD videos is not an issue. Works perfectly.

Class 2 is at least 2MB/s.
Class 4 is at least 4MB/s.
Class 6 is at least 6MB/s.

And so on...

Cool I must have a class 4 (at least SSD) I do about 4MB+ seems good enough for my needs (not bought via this 7dayshop site)
