The reviews posted over the weekend indicate there is an 8 GB SD card included in the box.
Is that a vendor deal or is it supplied by HTC?
Reason I ask is I have ordered an SD card with the phone which I won't need if it comes with one already. I phoned Expansys sales and they don't think it comes with an SD card.
Any definitive advice would be most welcome ...otherwise I just have to wait and see!
Thanks
Mal
I also want to know this, please post where did you guys bought it and if it had the sdcard on package, inside or outside...
In dutch (UK version of Thouch HD), this information wasn't there yet yesterday when i looked at this website (http://www.pdashop.nl/product/59806/htc-touch-hd-uk.html)

8 GB memorycard
I spoke with the Expansys sales rep here in CHina and he seemed to think that the one which ships to Hong Kong (and therefore the one that makes into the mainland) would most likely have a 1gb card, however the website clearly states there will be an 8gb card. Not sure if this is standard for the region or if the local guy is just taking it before he ships them out. THis is common practice here in CHina to buy something new and find that the distributor opened it up and swapped out the memory cards, batteries, charger, etc. with much crummier OEM stuff and then re-shrinkwrapped it. I've e-mailed Expansys UK and expansys HK to ask and will let you know if I get any concrete confirmations.....
Scandisk 8GB microSDHC in box
Hi!
HTC ships the HD with a Scandisk 8GB microSDHC memory card in the box for the hungarian distributor. Since Hungary is in EU I assume it will be the same for other EU countries as well.
But to be completly sure ask the distributor in your country!
Brgds,
imee.h
France
In France too, it will ship with 8Go Micro SD card
I am about to order this http://www.expansys.com.gr/p.aspx?i=175641
Is the Greek version of expansys my question is, if there is already an 8GB microsd in the box, why this value pack contains 8gb "expansys" microsd (appart from the case and the car charger)?
Does that mean that I will receive the touch hd with 8gb sandisk in the box, PLUS the extra 8gb "expansys" card?
In México is also included the 8gb card
But it´s soo expensive here.... $1,200USD!!!
Sounds like expansys is trying to make money out of you guys.
HTC will include ScanDisk 8g SDHC in the package all over the world...same goes for battery,headset,etc...standard pack.
If you buy it trough an operator the pack might be different,but never less then original HTC package...unless of course you live in a third world country(like somalia,Ruanda,Ghana,etc...) where you go to customer services complain and they beat you with a baseball bat and steal your HTC HD

Hello,
Please where did you get this news.
Thanks
mobiles.co.uk do not list it as included
Right here, http://www.expansys.com/ft.aspx?k=115444 , a guy from expansys confirms that the 8gb card is included!!!
Nevertheless, if someone receive his HD from expansys please confirm if the card is inside...
I`m Romanian and we have a real problem concerning what you really get in your box. My HD should arrive in a couple of days and I don`t think I`ll get the 8GB MicroSD as the dealer didn`t post this detail in the product`s specs... I`ll be back in a few days with an Later Edit to let you know if I did got the card or not... Fingers crossed.

Confirmed that the CHinese expansys distributor is stealing the 8gb cards out of the boxes and repackaging them. I would bet this is going on in a lot of countries, wheni called the main expansys customer srevice line they told me nothing they could do about it so apparently they don't care..... @ssh*les.....
@Raziel1 - Already read that but the problem is not with the original content the problem is with our dealers.. It wouldn`t be the first time I receive something else... Also.. They are not responsable because on their site they don`t post extre accesories like cards... It`s similar to what mlalahoi said. Repackiging is possible... The main thing is I just don`t trust them... I guess I`ll see when I receive my HD.
@htc_hd I ordered my HD from eMag.ro like a week or so ago... They say it`ll arrive on Nov 14th... clicky here

Hi!,
Can someone tell the best website to buy a Sd card ?
Should be 512 mb or greater, and have a good response in velocity
It's to be used in a Qtek S100/Magitian
Im' from Portugal, so shipment costs are relevant
Thanks in advance
Best Regards,
Miguel Cunha
You can have a look at this site:
http://www.tweakers.net/pricewatch/cat/48/top
It is a dutch pricewatch with many dutch shops, but also many internet shops.
I bought my high-speed 1GB SD card from Amazon.co.uk and it cost £63, which is equivalent to about €90. The brand is Bytestor and it works perfectly so far.
On Ebay...Guy in new york sells 1gig sd for about £38 and £9ish to ship.
Takes 3 - 5 days and fully guaranteed
bakerk ...
How much in USD or EUR ? I'm from Portugal, so.. maybe that person doesn't ship to portugal ... i have to look better in ebay...
Thanks
I'd recommend that you are very careful about buying on eBay...
I bought my first 1GB SD card from a person on eBay. The card he sent from the US was NOT the same as the card he was advertising on eBay. He claims it was the same but the speed rating was different. Customer service was non-existant and he didn't care that he sent me a different card brand. His card took 4 weeks to arrive.
This is why my second purchase was from Amazon. It was slightly more expensive but it was much quicker and I knew it was going to be correct.
Maybe I was unlucky with eBay but the very cheapest isn't always the best. :?
Good luck
Where to Get 1 GB SD Cards for Cheap...
check:
:idea: www.ecost.com :idea:
:idea: www.tigerdirect.com :idea:
Last I checked the first had a 1 GB Card for $57.00 Dollars, that is after the $20.00 rebate had been applied.
They also had a few for $6x.xx and $7x.xx, so check it out.
Plus they all come with warranties and from a company you can trust...!
They also have a 2 GB SD Card for abou $175.00, for those that always want more!!!
Hope that helps ya all out... 8)

This is NOT the guy I had problems with. (My guy was called Sarafatl.)
However, the guy I used had a feedback rating of 99.7% from over 100,000 trades. I thought I'd be safe. Two weeks after I received my card he disappeared from eBay. User account closed.
Compared with trading with someone like Amazon, who have a reputation to protect, eBay may be slightly cheaper but not cheap enough to compensate for the worry of using someone completely unknown, IMHO.
I ordered from sarafatl because he was selling the specific brand of card that someone in these forums had recommended (Kingmax) but that wasn't the brand of card I received. He said he'd run out of stock. I have no idea whether the card he sent was as good as the (recommended) Kingmax.
Bought mine off ebay. Lexar 1 GB, paid $65 including shipping to Norway from the US.
Always had good experience shopping off ebay, as long as you stick to the power sellers you should be ok...

Can someone recommend a good case for the trinity? I'm used to using a Krussel Horizontic one with my old Exec and find its the best for me with its two looped belt straps.
Been through their website but can't locate a specific one or a general one that comes in the correct size.
Any helps appreciated!
back to 7 days with expansys...grrrr
I know....when I got a reply to my query yesterday the said "no firm date...but within two weeks"
So I can canceled and got mine from a shop a mile from home! And an authorized reseller at that!
I just received my black one today and it comes with a very, very nice black horizontal leather (not vinyl) case with elegant stitching.

Busy transferring all my music to it right now.
Picked the card up for a reasonable price of £55.....and cheaper than Ebay!

Got in next day in the post.
Yep its nearly full....just on 3GB of music....then some satnav maps and ebooks Speed doesn't seem to differ too drastically when copying via PC. In the device I see no difference.
Also the A2DP works alot better on the Trinity than my old Exec.

I believe the Tytn (Hermes) uses a micro SD card which probably won't be available in a 4gb size for quite a while....sadly.
@J273
Secure Digital High Capacity SDHC supports addressing of up to 32 gigs of card memory, at speeds of 2, 4 or 6 megs/sec
You're using a mini SDHC card, correct? not a v.1 Mini SD card.
Hiya,
I saw a few posts here and there about people who are uncertain as to whether there's any removable storage included with the X1.
I purchased an O2 X1 last week, and it came with a 4GB micro-SD. The card was already inserted into the device.
I hope this clears things up for anyone thinking about makaing a purchase on O2.
Oms.
and which country are u talking about? or is o2 germany only?
It depends. I got my X1 ON O2 but I didn't get it FROM O2, which is presumably why mine did not come with the memory card.
My X1 is retail rather than O2 branded. Not to mention if I were relying on O2 I probably would have never gotten the X1, I don't think they were even available directly when I ordered mine.
Its hardly a big deal though, microSD are pretty cheap and I am glad I got 8GB. Having a spare 4GB would have been useful but its no deal breaker. I am glad I got a retail X1 as I have no immediate plans to mess around flashing custom ROM images to it.
iv done some benchmarking of the 2,4 and 16gb cards if your interested on the Turbo X1 thread, i did not have an 8gb to test, maybe you would like to fill in some gaps and post some results for us. If its as fast as the 4gb, I will get one, but if its got the same speed as the 16gb card, then I will stick with that.
Good point - My bad.
My device was purchased from an O2 store, in the UK. It was therefore a 'branded' silver X1.
I had the option to 'upgrade' my handset at various retailers, however I found the best deals to be at the official O2 stores/telesales depts.
I almost upgraded to a black X1 at the carphone warehouse: BUT although the £45 tariff appeared to be identical, it didn't include unlimited web bolt-on that I would have got if I purchased direct from O2.
I hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Oms.

Indeed. Got mine at a random electronics chain in Italy, unbranded. Came with a 2gb card. Although 16gig cards aren't all that pricey nowadays if you look in the right place.
I just bought a sealed HD2 from someone and it didnt come with a micro sd card, just wondering if this is normal, or are all HD2 suppose to come with a microsd card?
Bought mine yesterday and it came with a 2GB SD card
I bought it from a guy who had it shipped from the UK i believe he said (Im from the US). The seal was still on the box when I opened it to inspect before I bought.
I was all annoyed that HTC was only offering 2GB of storage on their flagship device (and no internal storage, either) but was plesantly surprised that my HD2 had an 8GB card in the box.
Anyone else get 8GB?

why would a company include a new security seal in the box??? That defeats the whole purpose of a security seal.... I've never heard of this before.
Re spare security seal in box
Yea I had one of these in the box, at least thats what I think it was, the missus seems to have thrown it away during a fit of cleaning madness. WHat a very strange extra.
<added> Mine was an upgrade from O2, came with 2GB and security seal, and is unable to use teh HTC website rom updates (serial not valid, I guess cos o2 have locked it to their own update path.)
mine too come with a micro sd card... what a scumbag that guy is!!!

I bought it from a guy that bought straight from HTC unlocked. Now I have to wonder if this phone he sold me is a refurb...anyway to check? I know w/ the iphone you just go to apple and enter in your serial and they will tell you what kind of warranty you have. Any way to do this with HTC?
It still blows my mind what they were thinking including another security seal.....
I cant complain too much since I did buy the phone for $620 tax free, but its still disappointing since he advertised it as brand new.
hi,
first i thought that the extra seal was a mistake from htc that only happend to my box, but now i see it wasnt...
i have one device from htc and one from t-mobile germany, both came with a 2gb card.

Interesting... so you got 8GB on a branded one. Mine isn't even branded though, and I got no security seal either.
What brand is your card? Sandisk?
Mine came with 8GB. I bought it new from ebay.
My package with a 8G card
Mine came with a 2GB card...replaced it with an 8GB one a few seconds after.
Mine was an unlocked phone from Hong Kong with WWE. This phone came with an 8GB card but no GPS software. I thought the 8GB card was a pleasant surprise as the phone was advertised as coming with a 2GB card.
Hi all,
I have recieved my phone from mobiles.co.uk finaly who initially advertised the I9000 as the 16gb version... This is incorrect and have since changed their website to 8gb..
I have been in contact with mobiles.co.uk who have tried to send me an 8gb memory to make up the difference. Like probably most of us here we already have 8gb memory cards so this is useless but may be useful to you.
I would advise that anybody who has purchased the Samsung Galaxy S from mobiles.co.uk as the 16gb version, to double check and you'll probably find its the 8 and if you want to return it.. do so before the return policy runs out and goto vodaphone for the 16.
I am curious how many people they have done this too!!!
Hi, I bought mine from Mobiles.co.uk, and yes it was advertised as 16g, but it was also advertised as having an LED Flash at one point. But being realistic I never expected to get a 16G version since Vodafone announced a UK exclusive on it. Mobiles corrected this as soon as they got them. I didnt bother asking for an 8 gig card, as you say, we mostly already have them.
You are fully entitled to send it back, and get one from Vodafone, but it will be locked, and likely Vodafone branded with the red dog turd. So I'm happy with my 8G version, and its hardly a limitation given we can add another 32G in the SDHC slot.
I guess its a question of weither you feel cheated or hard done by, or weither you shrug it off as an easy oversight in today's world where a new gadget arrives every week.
Thats exactly it.. but would rather be given the choice than realise when its too late and cant send it back.. Vodafone offer it for £35pm and dont give the half price offer neither which would pay for the SD card..
Just a note to people... thats all.
guys do you know if this phone work on tmobile US? can I buy it off and get it send over to the us????
thanks
