SanDisk Corporation today introduced a 4-gigabyte (GB) microSD High Capacity card —the largest capacity of the world’s smallest removable flash memory card. The SanDisk4GB microSDHC card can store more than 1,000 digital songs or more than 2,000 high-resolution pictures or up to 8 hours of MPEG 4 video. SanDisk made the announcement at 3GSM World Congress 2007. The new SanDisk 4GB SanDisk microSDHC card will allow handset manufacturers and mobile network operators to plan rich media services for their customers who increasingly see their phone as their camera, video player, gaming system and music player.

The new card adheres to the SD Speed Class 2 Rating specification which defines a minimum sustained transfer speed for SDHC cards. Retail release of the card is planned for later in 2007. OEM pricing has not been determined yet.
