yes, but I usually just buy uSDs and use an SD adapter as prety much only my 50G and camera use SD cards, everything else uses uSDs, excepting one chinese game console that uses miniSD(again uSD w/an adapter).

Plain old uSD cards aren't that cheap any longer(v. new SDHC variants, even 4GB cards cost almost as much as 8 or 16GB), and the hierarchy of good->bad goes: made in XXX, where XXX=
Japan(Toshiba only mfg in Japan BEST BY FAR plain old SD mfg)
Taiwan(somewhere between best and worst, varies by mfg)
China(tend to really crap out as they get full, avoid if possible)

The old mfg rule doesn't seem to apply with SDHC though, or such has been my experience.

50G: Hmm... I wonder if SD is a memory(OS) limitation, as IIRC the electrical spec is the same, and some other older devices were able to utilize SDHC via driver updates. fw update time...

[EDIT]
I've had recent experience with plain old SD uSD cards as I ordered some Thursday, which showed up in the mail yesterday... for the price I could've bought 16GB uSDHC cards, but for what I'm using them for the device will NEVER be able to handle SDHC -> need SDs. 2GB uSD w/SD adapters were c. $5 apiece, probably can find them cheaper but I was in a hurry.
