SanDisk Extreme III Test Cards

[Karlie Robinson]

Good morning everyone. 

I have been working with SanDisk and Arrow Electronics to source the SD 
Cards you've spec'd for the Fedora on OLPC project. 

If anyone would like to test on the OEM version[1] of the cards, I can 
mail them to you at cost.  So $30US.  I'll pay the postage.

[1] - Why is OEM important?  When any sort of flash memory is produced 
there are minute differences with the internal structure.  For this 
project we'll need to use an OEM part which ensures that we have the 
same card structure with every SD we send through the duplicator.  
Retail packaged cards do not have a consistent internal structure which 
can cause quality issues with a duplication run. 

It's not that retail is inferior quality, but for day to day use (in a 
camera, phone or other application) write tolerances don't need to be as 
precise.
