I use a Sandisk class 4 8gb. Works great. I'd say that just about any name brand purchased from a reputable dealer would be fine.

And seriously. This is a forum, not a text message. :)

I have an AData Class 6 16GB mem card and I love it. Plus it was only $64 bucks instead of $119 for the Sandisk Class 2 16GB I sell at work.

"class" refers to the data transfer speed, both when you're computer is writing the info onto the disc and when your phone is reading it, the higher the class number, the higher the data transfer speed...

Class 2: 2 MByte/s - 13x
Class 4: 4 MByte/s - 26x
Class 6: 6 MByte/s - 40x

supposedly Samsung i heard is coming out with a Class 10 card, but i'll believe that when i see it in mass production... shortly after which, i will probably purchase one...

How fast can the Intercept transfer data, i.e. what class micro SD card should I buy to match specs for best performance? What is the largest size Micro SD card the intercept can support? Does it matter Micro SDHC or just regular Micro SD? Thanks.

Great question...too bad it got skipped over. Either people don't know, or no one wanted to throw out their guesses to just be corrected later.

Either way, I got a 32gb Class 2 for $11 shipped on ebay...works fine so far. Admittedly, it's transfer rate when transferring files from my PC to the card is slow, but in the phone it functions fine.

I just cant stand all these impatient idiots on ebay. These 32gb cards start out at .01, a reasonable price is around $10-$15, yet some of these guys go button crazy and they jump up to like $40. It makes me laugh. They're doing it to themselves.
