    Size. Micro ones are very small.

    The size of the card drops... i.e:

    SD ---> Mini SD ---> Micro SD

    Otherwise not much really apart from price as Micro SD format is pretty new it is slightly more expensive than mini sd. However, if you get micro sd with an mini SD adaptor, you can use the card in both micro and mini compatable devices.

    MicroSD cards used to be called "Transflash".

    Best price I've found recently is at 7DayShop.com:

    Wow! 1 GB MicroSD for £7.99

    Make sure you buy a load of stuff because there's a standard £3.95 delivery charge. Stock up on USB drives and any other memory cards you need (I bought a 4 GB Compact Flash card from them for£17.99. Excellent!

    One well satisfied customer of many years...
    “When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around.

    But when I got to be twenty one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years.”
