    So recently purchased a Toshiba Satellite A205-S5855, and i stuck in a Sony Duo memory card into the memory slot, only realizing it takes microSD, so wondering what i can do to take it out, i dont have really thin tweezers, apparently, it isnt one of those push in to eject sort of slots, and i have no idea how to get it out, any help? i have read the disassembly guide but theres nothing in there that says anything about media card slot.

    Oh dear. My friend did that, insisting a MS Pro Duo was an SD card, and used toothpicks to get it out. It was stuck in there pretty good, tweezers would be best.

    I had someone make the same mistake on my A8Js. I got a piece of tongue tape from a photo lab to get it out.
