You should search this group. We just had this discussion a few days
ago. Very informative it was.

Cheers,
Pal

I have seen postings on the internet that some have had trouble geting
the calculator to read SD cards tht were not the sandisk brand...I
myself tried to uo use a Panasonic branded SD card that i had and it
would not read it, but when I used a SanDisk branded one with the same
calc it worked fine.

In other words, use only Sandisk branded cards to play it safe.. I do
not work for Sandisk, just know from personel experience they are
better.

Oh, on formatting.. the 49g+ has a "FORMA" function, that shows up in
the "FILES" manager. I just use this funciton to format SD cards (I'm
using with the 49g+). I would imagine this function, provided by HP
engineers, puts the memory card in an acceptable state ready for use.

However, some here might argue the benefits of formatting SD cards
other than the HP default.
