+hines_rjbs Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Hi, I just got a Vista HCx and I'm ready to add the City Navigator 2008 & Topo maps. Does it make any difference what type of card I get? Say Sandisk Ultra II SD vs Standard SD? There is quite a difference in price. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment

Get the lower priced one, it should work just fine Quote Link to comment

gratefulHIKE Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 you dont need anything with fancy wording...... http://www.staples.com/webapp/wcs/stores/s...DP1599:CL142162 Quote Link to comment
eaparks Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 (edited) Not sure about the Vista HCx but Garmin has said the Sandisk Ultra cards will not work properly in their 60Cx and CSx units. In the Etrex x series, I would think that the same would apply. Radio Shack's sales flyer for 12/9 thru 12/15 has the Sandisk 1Gb Micro SD card for $19.99 (Radio Shack item #44-163) and the 2GB for $29.99 (Radio Shack item #44-164). Neither require any type of mail-in-rebate. Both can be bought for less on-line, but these are good prices if wanting to walk-in a store and buy. Looked like the Staples add did not include the Micso Sd Card, which is what is required. Edited December 12, 2007 by eaparks Quote Link to comment

Go to the Garmin website and read the FAQ on memory cards. As I recall they recommend by name the Kingston and Sandisk micro SD cards. There is a model of the Sandisk that will not work in the Garmin. Quote Link to comment
