Summary: Ruggedized and Hardened still working fine after a year
Comment: I bought one of these last year to use with my Casio Exilim EX-Z120 camera after reading a torture test where it was run through soaking in soda pop, rubbing in mixed powders, gooped with peanut butter and thrown at the wall and still worked.

In that review the reviewer disassembled one of the lower capacity cards in the model line and found that the entire circuit is encased in epoxy.

I've used in in a few devices without problems.

To the previous reviewer: Despite "standards" no manufacturers seem to actually be compatible with all the other manufacturers--SD cards or tires, there are variances.

My only complaint is that the cost is pretty steep compared to less "hardened" high speed cards. (I'm going to take a cheap regular SD card & see about embedding the circuit.)

Most electronics, if their unpowered when they get wet, and are completely dried before using, will survive a soaking in freshwater. I was mostly interested in it's ability to withstand ESD, but haven't tested that....

Summary: this does not work with Treo 650
Comment: I bought the card for use with a Treo 650 and I thought it was the phone that had issues. After a month of trying to trouble shoot the phone I happen to try a friend's Sandisk 1 gig card for laughs to see if it would work. Hello and behold it works fine ! then I tried a MMC card and that worked great in my Treo as well !! It looks like this cards is not compatible with all devices !! The product discription does not mention this at all. Now it's going to cost me about $20 buck in restocking fee and shipping with Amazon to return it. I guess the lesson learned is don't buy electronics with Amazon unless you are absolutely sure of what you are getting, even then look around locally so you can try it before buying.
