The one Poundland sell is exactly the same as the picture which I 'stole' from Play.com who have the cheek to sell these at £9.99!!!
http://www.play.com/Electronics/Elec.../Product.html#
The spec is also exactly the same as the Ply.com 1!

I know it has been posted before but it was over 2months and 4 weeks ago, so I thought people should be made aware

Or if you don't live near a Poundland you can get one similar for around £1 including P&P from Deal Extreme http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.11

Technically this is spam - same deal, same price, same retailer - bumping the original deal would have been a better idea........

No need to rush for this as they have been selling them for 12 - 18 months now.

I have purchased three of these. All work perfectly if you wish to read from a card, however, only one will write - just gives me a write protect error. Someone took one apart for the previous thread and highlighted an issue with the write protect mechnaism.
Biggest card I have used so far is a 2gb SD card.

I've seen these online for 30p each.

Can't remember where but it was somewhere that sells SD cards (like amazon or ebuyer)

Sorry, that wasn't very helpful but £1 sounds a bit of a rip off!

Looks like we have another Fairtrade supporter. Do a Google on Fairtrade (and maybe pick up a basic book on Economics and read the first chapter) before you jump to the conclusion that boycotting cheap imported products is likely to benefit poorer people.

Have a start here (first Google hit):

http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/politic.../fairtrade.htm

When you've done that, you could actually do some good for these people by lobbying your local MP to get EU import tariffs removed. Then get yourself down to Poundland and go wild!

Welcome to the real world.
