Hey Rtech,

I seem to remember when i sent them my card they didnt ask for any purchase details or anything! (if i am not mistaken)....mayyybe i had to include the packaging when i mailed it to them...but i dont seem to remember that.

Anyway, try it in another cardreader first...theres a 50-50 of a format saving u some trouble.

cya

Tried checking it in a reader but no luck there either.

i faced the same problem with a MMC(used in a mobile). its quite a pain.

can never trust memory modules. their failures can never be predicted.

but, now i get cards with 1 yr warranty for the grey market price. the dealer takes the risk. so, no head-ache for a year.

I could get you a card from Dubai, if you're interested. I bought a 1GB sd card fro about Rs. 4,000 for my iMate and I'm quite happy with it. Its one of those chinese/taiwanese makes and hasnt given me a problem so far. My first Sandisk 256 mb is just a piece of plastic now, though...

Cheers

Thanks for the offer steeroid. 4K for a 1GB card, thats a darn good deal!

But, i think I'm gonna buy one here itself and I'll catch the dealers neck if it goes on the blink in less than a year. Second time lucky I hope!
