The 3 things you need to check to be sure this will fit your device are 1) the physical size, 2) storage size, 3) class/speed.

Size: there are regular sized chips and “micro” sized chips. This is a regular size, NOT a micro, so if you need a micro size, pass on this. This is about the size of a stamp and the thickness of a quarter, physically, with what looks like a corner cut off.

Storage size: The 8 Gig size is the most my device will handle, so check your device. Smaller will work, but more will be wasted. This gave me over 24 hours of recording time at a high quality recording speed.

Class: The flash chip here is a class 6 (which means it functions at a higher speed [not sure if it's double, just that it's faster overall] than a class 4, which in turn is faster than a class 2).

The “HC” means high capacity, as opposed to earlier models which should be labelled just “SD” without the HC.

I have just reached its full capacity and will be getting another one. You can wipe or delete parts of what you’ve stored, as with all memory devices, but I’d like to have another blank backup disc. No complaints about this one. I’ve had it for a little over a year.

This is the kind of a movie that you will continue thinking of several days after you have seen it. I saw it 2 weeks ago and it still on my mind. Exceptional Movie.

It took me over 16 years to finally see The Puppet Masters, and I’m glad I did. As an old Heinlein fan, few of his stories have made it onto the silver screen, and usually with mixed results (such as Starship Troopers, which I didn’t hate like some fans, and thought it was okay). But this is a better movie and more faithful to the original Heinlein idea.

Is it a great flick? Well, probably not, but then most movies aren’t–but it’s a decent one and like I said–pretty faithful to the original Heinlein. I find S-F fans are a bit too territorial and quick to find fault with movies based on their hero’s novels, and I try to steer a middle course. Movies after all do usually require some artistic license, as long as it’s not inappropriate or misrepresents the original.

Overall, the story is suspensefully and accurately rendered, the acting is good, and some of the special effects are pretty impressive. The alien “slugs” were especially convincing, and the special effects guys did some nice work there. I agree that the half hour fight at the end got a little long, but the first hour of the movie is solid. All in all it’s a pretty fair movie rendition of one of Heinlein’s few “horror” type stories. If you’re not overly critical and somewhat easily entertained (as I am) when it comes to movies you’ll probably find this one worth a try.
