I want to be clear about using Micro SDHC cards with Rockbox on a Sansa e260.
This is what I understand to be possible:
I can use a  Micro SDHC card with Rockbox software if I install the files through a card reader not the USB connection.
The Rockbox software will see the files in the SDHC card.

If this is true is there a limit to how big the SDHC card can be?
Thanks

The specification for microSDHC caps the capacity at 64GB.  I expect Rockbox to support every capacity of microSDHC -- there haven't been any reported exceptions to this.

Great info here I wanted to know how large I could go.. I ended up getting 4GB microSDHC instead dirt cheap they like the 2GB MicroSD came with a SD adapter. But it was a good idea when I got the SanDISK  MicroMate as I can now just attach Sansa with RockBox and the MicroSDHC adapter to using a freeware program called Teracopy (uses 256KB of your RAM to speed up transfers).

So let's get this right so 8GB can be used, then a 16GB microSDHC, or 32GB microSDHC and (64GB MicroSDHC when it's made available) wow this is wonderful. But are you limited to SanDisk brand with true

Yes, larger cards can be used.
No, you aren't limited to SanDisk brand cards.
