I bought a 1GB card when they hit $100us, and I have yet to fill it. Maybe I should pick up a 512miniSD card now, so I'll be ready when I get my new phone....

Movies easily suck up that space on my phone. I will have to keep an eye out for them in the mainstream stores...

The only places that sell 512mb minisd cards now either rip you off or put you on a back order list.

I have a 256MB card in my C500 and use it for audio only (not tried movies yet) and have yet to fill it. A big reason to get a SMartphone was to double as an MP3 player, so the higher capacity cards available, the better.

Even if I was buying for an SD device, I'd get a mini-SD card so I could keep my future device options open!
