Talk:MultiMediaCard
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
MultiMediaCard is one word, no?Really?
... I'm pretty sure it's one word in Germany, but I've seen it used both ways in the US. Point of fact, though: if you feed "MultiMediaCard" to Google, it will return a lot of hits, but it will ask you if you meant "MultiMedia card", which gives you even more hits... so the popular consensus seems to lean toward two words. For all that's worth.
"Note: The term MultiMediaCards is always spelled out as one string, with the MM and C in caps. The MultiMediaCard Association may be abbreviated MMCA. These terms, as well as SecureMMC, are registered trademarks of the MultiMediaCard Association." From the MMCA web site. This article should be renamed. ---Ransom (--208.25.0.2 16:46, 10 May 2006 (UTC))
In other news, the "Embedded systems developer specs at Sandisk" link is broken. Maybe it should point to http://www.sandisk.com/Assets/File/OEM/ApplicationNotes/MultiMediaCard/AppNoteMMC_SDv1.0.pdf? I can't be sure since I don't know what the original document was.

[edit] Dead link replaced
Is it only DV RS-MMC that is compatible with Nokia N90? I have an SD MMC, can I use it with my N90 device?
[edit] MultiMediaCard
Camel case indeed... The MMC Association uses "MultiMediaCard" instead of "Multimedia Card" or "MultiMedia Card". 200.153.242.116 04:54, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Open Standard
What does this phrase actually mean?
- This technology is an open standard available to any company who wants to improve upon it or develop products for it.
Is it royalty-free? Is there an open process for new revisions of the spec? The current wording doesn't tell readers anything useful. --Dtcdthingy 15:32, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] SD
In the article it mentions SD but doesn't explain what SD is or what it stands for. What exactly is it?--Jcvamp 15:04, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] MMC card--Redundant?
I noticed in this article that there are places where it says "MMC card". Isn't saying 'MMC card' sort of redundant? After all, MMC stands for MultiMediaCard, so saying "MMC card" is like saying MultiMediaCard card, isn't it? 131.230.53.188 19:11, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
Yes. It's the same as when people say PIN number. PIN stands for Personal Identification Number. People are strange like that.--Jcvamp 11:12, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
