Why would you buy it off that site? It is only class 4 as well. Use www.pricespy.co.nz
The class 10 ADATA only cost $29.99.

That isn't a very good deal. You can get a 32GB class 4 like that for around $26. Go have a look at:

I have a class 10 but a class 4 would be fine for most people.

It's funny, I've gotten lured into quite a few deals from deal sites before. Thinking "Oh WOW this is super cheap" but then finding out it's available for the same or even cheaper at normal retail stores =[

Is anyone having problems with the data connection not restarting after WiFi switches off?
When I have been connected to WiFi then leave the house my phone doesn't switch back to its data connection.
I try the Mobile Data toggle but it doesn't reconnect. I try re-chose the network provider and that doesn't work. The only thing I can do to get it to re connect is to re-boot the phone.
There is good 3g signal so that isn't the issue.

Go with this advice!

AData are a good brand.  never heard of Silicon Power

I'd also avoid Firstin at all costs.  It's the old The PC Company, and they have been known for a lot of scam deals in the past.  

They also sell a lot of refurbished crap, for more than new ones sell for on Pricespy

Edit: perfect example from today!

GT520 Recertified on Firstin $79.99

Brand new on Pricespy $61.

Different brands, but exactly the same features, low profile, HDMI, 2x DVI.  




I have moved across the ditch.  Now residing in Melbourne as a VOIP/Video Technical Trainer/Engineer.

Silicone Power are a Taiwanese company and have been making memory for years, pretty much the same as A-Data.
I have used their SD cards and have had no issue, if that helps.

Anyone got any news regarding the 32GB variant from NL or BrightPoint?
I have a doubt that mid June quote from NL is going to be for the 32GB. Might be true for 16GB but not seeing it a possibility for 32GB. The USA carrier Sprint is getting theirs 16GB/32GB in two weeks. I'm hoping that international version would release before that.

mate we feel your pain but asking all the time isn't going to make happen sooner, best wait and see if it does arrive as NL have said.

I think he meant waiting without asking each 2 days when your device is coming :)
