Given that I'd need the far side of 100GB to tote around everything, then if I'm going to have to be selective, and I am, it's just a matter of degree. The actual numbers become a bit irrelevant. And, really, I only fill up my phone with music anyhoo. I have a "most recent n gigabytes" smart playlist in iTunes, and that's the one that gets synced to the phone. I'm also seriously interested in the fact that these phones will come with Nokia Maps, which has a very good reputation as a turn-by-turn navigation application.

Post #349,665 by scoenye 10/26/11 6:20:14 PM Reply	Wondering why? http://www.engadget....and-how-nokia-ca/ This is the root cause. Microsoft had never intended Windows Phone 7's storage to be expandable, swappable, or removable. Now explain this to Gramma... the phone randomly generates a password that it stores in its internal Flash and then uses to secure the card, essentially bonding the card with the phone. By its design, a password-secured SD card (or microSD card in this case) can be read only with the password; otherwise, your only option is to erase it. So, once used in a WinPhone, the card becomes useless anywhere else, and if you do swap it out, the phone will not recognize the new card. Given who will be fielding the irate calls, I can see the the OEMs being kingly asked to avoid this possibility altogether by not having a card slot to begin with.
