Kingston Adds 4GB miniSDHC Cards

Kingston has launched new 4GB miniSDHC cards that are poised to support next generation digital devices with small form factor.

Speaking on the occasion, Rajesh Panicker, country manager of Kingston, said, "As sleeker, more sophisticated devices offer digital imaging, music, video, mobile TV, and games, the need for higher data transfer rates, increased storage, and smaller form factor expansion memory becomes greater."


"Kingston is ready with miniSDHC memory to support the popular but storage-hungry advanced features of these next generation digital devices."

The new 4GB miniSDHC cards can hold over 2,000 images, up to 750 songs, or 4.5 hours of MPEG4 video, according to Kingston.

The new cards are available in class 2, 4, and 6 speed ratings. Each speed rating reflects the minimum sustained data transfer rate (DTR) of megabytes per second (MB/s). A class 2 card has a minimum DTR of 2MB/sec, while class 4 and class 6 cards have minimum DTR of 4 and 6MB/sec respectively.

The 4GB miniSDHC cards are priced at Rs 2,800 for class 2; Rs 2,900 for class 4; and Rs 3,900 for class 6 ratings.
