It will be coming in the coop. I remember RJ stated that 85% of the cards in the market world will not work. If you are wanting one as a backup? It might be best to wait and the card in the coop then order a spare.

I think it will come with an 8G card. Good for a very long show. I think that would be around 400 minutes of sequence and MP3s.

Specifics are not generally released until after the first coop order goes in for new items.
A lot of folks trying to roll their own could cause supply issues for the coop if a particular part has a limited availability.

All the parts probably have not been ordered yet as all of the payments have not been mae yet.  I know that he as pre-ordered some of them but he did not state which ones.  Even still, the coops here work as well as they do BECAUSE of consistancy.  For whatever reasons, the parts used in a new device ARE NOT normally made available until the coop is ready to ship.

Well, the final decision is up to the coop manager, but standard coop rules say that the parts will not be ordered until all coop payments are in.

This is why it is really important for people to pay promptly. If everyone paid within 24 hours, the orders could be placed immediately and the kits sorted and shipped a lot earlier. The few that wait until the last day to pay slow down the process for everyone...

This is one of the reasons that this info was not made available.  Many of these cards will NOT work with the Conductor, regardless of size.  There are issues with the way that some of them work that make them incompatable with it.  The card being used has not been mentioned because it would not help anyone if the coop was held up waiting for cards because a bunch of people decided that they would "just order a few extra's"of that card while they are waiting for the coop to ship and run the stock below what is needed to complete the coop.
