Ultra II Mobile flash


SanDisk today introduced the SanDisk Ultra II Mobile line of flash memory cards for multimedia-enabled mobile phones, boasting faster read and write speeds than standard flash memory cards, as well as longer warranty periods. Faster read/write speeds improve performance of the card for file transfer and play on personal computers, while also possibly reducing the energy consumption on the batteries of certain phones. The new flash memory cards are expected to accommodate performance requirements of future mobile phone models, according to SanDisk, which made the announcement at the CeBIT show in Hanover, Germany. The new line--which will be in mobile phone stores and other retailers this spring--consists of microSD, miniSD, and Memory Stick Pro Duo flash formats, and will be available starting at a capacity of 1GB. SanDisk Ultra II cards currently include the microSD 1GB ($90), miniSD 1GB ($80), and miniSD 2GB ($120) models. The Memory Stick Pro Duo cards come in capacities of 1GB ($100), 2GB ($180), and 4GB ($360, shown at right).
