PCMIA card for a COMAND system

[GRB996]

Just bought a new C220 CDi. I'm looking for a recommendation for a PCMIA card for the COMAND. MB want £45 for one, anybody bought one elsewhere? Anybody using PCMIA adaptor cards instead?

I bought the Maplin one for £19.99, but like the MB one it supposedly does not support SDHC. But more to the point, my COMAND still doesn't see anything put in the adaptor but a laptop does :-(

Hi there

I bought this one and it works fine in my C63. I used it to upload phone contacts. Now it has a 8GB SDHC card in it full of musi. No problems so far!

Hi,

I just picked up a C200 at the weekend and had the same question. I have ordered the following items from amazon as it stated "Suitable for Mercedes COMAND"

PCMCIA Adapter (£20)

PCMCIA Adapter 5 in 1 for Mercedes COMAND APS* - 5 in 1: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics

16gb SD Card (£20)

SanDisk 16GB SDHC Secure Digital Card: Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories

I haven't received them yet but I'll post a review when I do.
