So which of these would you recommend:
Amazon.com: A-DATA Class 6 microSDHC Flash Memory Card with SD Adapter: Electronics
Amazon.com: Kingston 16 GB Class 4 MicroSD Flash Card with SD Adapter SDC4/16GB: Electronics

Please note that I'll be buying from a local shop so the prize on amazon is irrelevant.

I recommend always going with the bigger brands. Sandisk or Kingston are very good. Kingston give a lifetime warranty. Cheaper brands are of poor quality usually and meet the minimum requirements for its class (eg 6MB/s Write speed for class 6) where as the expensive brands often greatly exceed the min requirement for class.
 
Sorry for double post. Just to clarify, The desire's hardware is limited to class 6 performance too. I bet you that class 4 Kingston will perform beyond the limitations of the device. That said, Class 4 is not particularly future proof.
 
My old Sandisk C2 4gb performed at better than C4 rates. I'd be surprised (I haven't tested it!) if my new C4 16gb isn't faster than most own-brand C6 cards, & I've a lot more faith in it not giving me trouble...
 
Well Sandisk is a bit expensive for me and the speed is not that important anyway. Anyway I've got some good experience with A-Data RAM so I went with it. Thanks for the advice everybody!
 
It's a similar question, so I'll post here instead of creating another thread. I'm running Oxygen, and want to get apsd, My card now is full, so I want a bigger card. While I'm getting a bigger one, I'm going to get a better one as well. Question is, will I notice a difference on a class 6 as apposed to a class 4 for my purpose. Money is tight, so I'd rather save if I can, but willing to spend what is needed. So if a 6 is noticeably better, I have no prob shelling out the cash.

There is a very little difference between class 4 and 6 as far as app2sd+ is concerned. However, I have a class 6 and the price difference was small.
