The miniSD card was developed to meet industry demands for downsizing mobile phones. It is only 37% the volume of an SD Memory Card. Despite its tiny size, the miniSD card offers all the benefits of the original SD Memory Card, including copyright protection. By inserting the miniSD card into the miniSD adapter, you can share a variety of digital data among standard SD-enabled products.
