This card works great with the Kindle. It is easy to use and copies from the Kindle quite fast. If you leave the card in the Kindle it will show you whether the item is on your kindle or on the memory card right under the title of the item in the content manager section. Great for keeping things on your Kindle organized.

I bought the 133xSD 4GB card for my Kindle. When I put it in the slot, a message flashed on the screen, "The inserted SD memory card could not be read. Please reformat the card or use a different, compatible card."

I put the card in my Canon digital camera to be sure it wasn't simply a defective card and it worked great there.

The Kindle support line told me that there is no way to reformat the card, it wasn't compatible. This item is not sold by Amazon, simply through Amazon and they have no way of knowing if it works or not unless people complain.

I know others above give it rave reviews with a Kindle, but either the card has been changed or something about the Kindle has been.

This storage card does not work with the Kindle I received for Christmas 2008!!

BLAZING 133x Speed 4GB Secure Digital SD Memory Card for AMAZON KINDLE by Accessory Power the Fast & Reliable Memory Solution ** Includes Free Memory Card Holder **

For someone who has never inserted a memory card before,this snapped right into my Kindle & I immediately & easily downloaded the books I've already read onto it. All items downloaded are displayed underneath the titles in Content Manager--this is an easy way to keep things organized, open up space on your Kindle, and any book you may wish to re-read in the future can be immediately uploaded back to your Kindle.

Works Great...At first I had some reservations about buying,due to some other reviews stated it didn't work.
My kindle(old Version) was starting to act a little sluggish because I had so many books on it.

Popped the back off my Kindle, inserted the memory card and transfered all data,even books I had deleted.
It took maybe 10 minutes from start to finish, from opening the back cover to closing it back up.

I"m not really in to reading any "Let's get started Manual" so I tend to wait till something becomes a problem before I browse the pages.....Long story short, I wasn't even aware that the Kindle 1 had a slot to accommodate a SDM card.
My funky old Kindle works Great now, plus no more having to delete my finished books !

I use a lot of audio on my Kindle and it takes up a lot of space. Even by removing items I am finished with, I seldom had enough space for an entire audio book, which usually are broken into two parts. The addition of the 4GB SD card has completely solved the problem of having to stop listening to a book half way through until I have time to remove part 1 and download part 2!

The brand I received was a Max Flash 133xSD, which is probably a little better quality than the one shown. As long as it is 133x, this is a good price for 4GB of SD memory. I purchased this memory card for use in a small HD digital video camera and it works great. I am :)

This card is a 4GB non-SDHC: a kind that almost does not exist any more.
If your device does not support SDHC, but you would like to max out on the capacity - this card is for you.
It works, what else needs to be said about it?

I have a Kindle 1, this Memory Card is all that I wanted, and more. Despite the one review to the contrary, it did not need to be formatted to work with my Kindle. It worked the moment I put it in, and hasn't failed me yet.

More importantly (to me), if it ever does fail, I am assured that Accessory Genie will promptly answer any question I might have quickly and professionally. Within a week of my purchase, they contacted me to make sure I received the card and was satisfied with its performance.

True Customer Service is a rare commodity in this day and age, and I more than appreciate their follow-up.

I use this with my netbook for the ReadyBoost feature available on Vista/Windows 7. Since my netbook has a slot for SD cards, it sits in there all the time to boost my hard drive speeds a little. Has worked great since I got it.

I have to download all Kindle books via USB which is not usually a problem, but sometimes certain free books that I've tranferred to my Kindle cannot be opened. This happens occasionally whether I have downloaded to the Kindle memory or to the SD chip. I don't think that this is the fault of the Kindle or the chip, but rather with the books because most of the time I have no trouble at all opening books after downloading them. If you get a "Cannot Open" message, try a different book or two and you may be able to open them. I've never had a problem with books that I purchased, but if a free book will not open I simply delete it because, as far as I know, there is no cure and there are always more free books.
