The strange thing is that on a Samsung Galaxy the transfer speed is the same (around 6MB/Sec) for both card. So for same reason Sony PRS-T1 just doesn't like the other card.

I also tried to restore the system to factory default, and the result is the same, i.e., with the new MicroSD the speed is between 2 and 3 MB/Sec, and for the internal SD the speed is between 1.5 and 2 MB/Sec. So the use of minimal-root.zip is not the cause of the problem.
Could it be filesystem fragmentation causing the problem? Try deleting all the files from the slow card (not by reformatting, in case the format is itself the the problem) and see if that makes a difference.
