SanDisk Ultra II Mobile
Line of Premium Flash Memory Cards

CeBIT '06: Sandisk today introduced the SanDisk Ultra II Mobile line of flash memory cards for multimedia-enabled mobile phones, at the CeBIT Hannover, Germany.

Exclusively designed for Mobile phones with memory card slots, the Ultra II Mobile memory cards have faster read and write speeds than standard flash memory cards, as well as longer warranty periods.

Faster read/write speeds attributes for improvement in performance and also proves to be effective by consuming less energy which inturn improve battery lifes of certain phones and are expected to accommodate performance requirements of future mobile phone models.

According To San Disk

"Tthe new line, which will be in mobile phone stores and other retailers this spring, consists of three memory card formats: microSD™, miniSD™ and Memory Stick PRO Duo™ , and will be available starting at a capacity of 1 gigabyte (GB)*. These high-capacity, high-performance SanDisk Ultra II cards have a minimum write speed of 9 megabytes (MB)* per second and read speed of 10MB/second**. The cards will be offered only in high capacities, ranging from 1GB to 4GB, and will have extended warranties in all regions of the world."

"Network operators and phone manufacturers are increasing the availability of premium content -- such as music, movies, games and broadcast TV -- that can be downloaded and stored on flash memory cards in the mobile phone," said David Smurthwaite, product marketing manager for SanDisk's mobile card line.

"Our new SanDisk Ultra II Mobile line provides the ideal combination of speed, optimized energy consumption and high capacity points to meet the demands of the newest mobile phones as well as anticipated future models. Users of phones with MP3 players are buying 1GB cards and will immediately benefit from the speed in transferring large music playlists and videos from their computer to their card."

Smurthwaite said that "power users with high-end mobiles who frequently swap out large music playlists and full-length videos will like the speed boost when they transfer files back and forth to their card from their computer."
