@ Jeko
The differences are because manufacturers quote unformated sizes, when the card is formatted some space is lost in filesystem overheads (little bits of data that are used by the operating system to let it know what files are where etc).
I think the manufacturers mostly quote unformatted sizes because 1gb sounds better than 960 mb but they would probably argue that they don't know how you're going to format the card and different file formats will have different overheads
Hope this helps

I think it should be 1050 so that the usable memory is 1gb
