I bought 2 of their 1GB SD cards as spares. Well at that price it wold be rude not to ;) They have a Dane Elect label on them. However when comparing write speeds with a Sandisk ExIII card I would say the Sandisk is over twice as fast.

The important thing for me though is not write speeds to the camera but download speeds to the PC via cardreader. Again the Sandisk is twice as fast. I suppose those with Fuji S2/S3's might argue with me there though :D

Maybe the 7dayshop SD cards are not as quick as the CF cards that they sell. Also the SanDisk EXIII would be a lot quicker than my ultra II. Either way they seem a good buy.

I would go along with Picstop Extreme III cards. Using them for a few years now and no problems.

Speed seems identical. I truly believe that the 7dayshop one was made on the same production line to identical standards as Jessops own branded cards.
Yes, they are. Toshiba/Hitachi are one of the few true manufacturers of Flash memory. Another is Texas Instruments.
It's rarer to see the actual manufacturers names on the products.....most of them are batch contract manufactured for others.
