Anyone seen these relics on the shelves anywhere ? Have tried all the big name outlets and trying to avoid ex East for the moment as the postage is more than the cost of the card.

Only on the internet mate, doubt you'll find one in the shops. Has your device (Camera) got a 2gb limit? If so there might be a firmware update that addresses that.

If you can't find them there always Ebay, $5 each with free postage.

Yup, you can create a 2gb partition on a larger sd card. Use diskpart on a Windows PC,not sure what the MAC equivalent is.

This idea has been brought up before, and I have a feeling it didn't work with the GT31, but I could be wrong, has anybody been successful?

But buying a mini SDcard with adapter does work!! And it's been done earlier this year.

Funny you say that... I just got my kids some cheap digital cameras for xmas and did exactly that. The problem is that he adapters (Sandisk) are so poorly made every time the camera is knocked the card looses contact and throws an error.
