Hi all,
I'm looking into getting a 16GB micro SD card for use in either my Nokia N95 or HTC Wildfire but wasn't sure about several things:
1) How can you be sure that one of the many on ebay or amazon for around £20 are genuine? Is it just a case of buying from a well known big seller in the UK?
2) How important really is the class of speed in a mobile phone? I've seen lots of class 2, some class 4, not sure about class 6 or above though. Is it worth the couple of quid extra to get a class 4 instead of 2?
3) Has anyone got any views on the different brands, e.g. Sandisk, Integral, Samsung, Kingston?
I was curious about the cheaper ones on ebay from Duracell wondering how good they might be? Good renowned brand for batteries maybe but unsure if that amazing for memory cards?

Any thoughts or advice much appreciated :o)
