Re: mini SD/Micro SD?

Lol, N73 or any other models except for N800(It has two slots for various cards-I am **bleep**ing jealous of it) support only one crad type.
Yes, I prefer micor SD.
Actually you should consider which brand to choose and must be careful about them.
Besides, nokia's own cards I prefer kingston, sandisk etc.

Re: mini SD/Micro SD?

I have noticed that MicroSD is substantially smaller than MiniSD.

MiniSD is bigger, MicroSD is tiny!

You'd be surprised how small it is.

Re: mini SD/Micro SD?

One thing to be careful about: make sure the card you buy is NOT miniSDHC. These cards are bigger (sizes over 4GB) but are a different standard that only the N95 is compatible with at the minute.

I wouldn't worry about the manufacturer, though: I've had cards from 4 or more different manufacturers and they've all worked fine.
