32GB micro sd card

[joshua117]

Ok, so like a lot of people I have been waiting for the release of a 32gb micro sd. Well while doing some random searching the other night I ran across this site that has them. (maybe anyway) It is listed as out of stock right now, but last night I could have sworn that it said it was available. (ok it was a little late and I was tired...so I could be mistaken) Anyway just wanted to give everyone a heads up, its the first site that I have found that even has listed a price on these things. And NOT very cheap by the way.

Heres the site: Micro SD Cards

You do know that's $231 US :icon_eek:

 

[joshua117]

yeah i know, but this is the first site to list a price for them (that i have found anyway). lets hope the price is wrong or goes way down relatively soon.:icon_eek:

That is alot of money for one, I will wait until they drop in price

Holy jesus. I can't see why anyone would pay more for that then they did for the phone itsself.

Don't worry - once they get into production - you'll see the price drop drastically. Are you old enough to remember paying $1,200.00 for a 100 mb hard drive? Now you can buy 16 GIG flash drives at costco for $49.00! And 2 TB internal drives for $99.00...

I'm sure we'll be seeing 32 gig microSD cards for less than $100.00 shortly. By next year they'll be keychain bluelight specials at Kmart for $4.99... cuskit

The price will come down over the Summer and I will be all over that 32GB card!

They'll still definitely be over $150 when they come out. Every type of storage has a sweet spot, and it's usually 1 or 2 sizes smaller than the top available capacity. 8gb cards can be had for $20ish, 16gb fro $50 right now.

I wish they'd come out with intermediate sizes instead of just doubling every time. I'd love to have a 24gb card (or even 16, since I have 8gb now).

Prices on flash memory and hard drives aren't dropping nearly as fast as they were a year or 2 ago. They've kind of reached a critical mass where the demand for higher capacities isn't nearly what it was.

Isn't it this summer they are expecting the DroidII that will be coming standard with a 64GB card - all for $49.00 no plan renewal? :icon_ poke:

He might have an Eris...They came with 8gb.

They are multiples of 2 and there are reasons for doing it like this

I bought mine on ebay and didn't realize it didn't come with one. Still a good enough deal that it didn't bother me.

Oh, and the 8gb card came from my Blackberry.

Yeah, chip capacities double, but there's no reason they can't mix and match chips on a card.
