My recomendation for GBA only, would be considering price and storage space is an EZ4+1GB. It's about the same price as what you linked above (including 1GB miniSD) and has perfect as it gets GBA support, and has about 16 times (1GByte=16x512Mbit) the storage space (and that's not taking into account of compression, so it will be more like 20-24 times bigger). I looked up "gormless" in the dictionary, it said "without gorm" .... so i looked up "gorm" but it wasn't there ????

I've had the X-rom 512 for over a year now and I highly reccomend it if you only want to play GBA games, it will work for some DS roms that are 256mb and inder.

It only has double the space, not 16x the space. For some reason you decided to compare 1 gigabyte to 512 megabits instead of megabytes.

@ajdale... the card he linked to is 512Mb. (bits not bytes, hence the lower case 'b' in 'Mb') 256Mb and 512Mb were common sizes for the last generation Flash carts. The only actual 512MB (bytes) flash cart I know of is the G6-4Gb (bits) ... though their might be a 4Gb (bits) EZ-3 cart too. I looked up "gormless" in the dictionary, it said "without gorm" .... so i looked up "gorm" but it wasn't there ????
