    $15 for a 32gb class 4 from Amazon

    Since they're so cheap, these are generally the cards I use in my phones/tablets, and I've never noticed a speed issue yet. "Class" is largely irrelevant as long as random reads/writes are decent; I ran the entire OS off of one in my Nook and it handled that fine.

    Price in that link reflects a 3rd-party seller who charges shipping. It's actually $20 direct from Amazon (same as the link), which is still a very good price.

    Class 4? Might as well buy a 16GB Class 10. You won't be able to fill a Class 4 32GB, takes too long. :)

    It's not terrible. 10 gigs of that is music; copy it once, play it several times.
