The Two Inch View Reviews the SanDisk 1GB microSD Card
microSD appears to be the new standard in HTC's upcoming devices - for example, the Hermes and the Breeze. If you're interested in picking up, or have already picked up, one of these devices, then you'll want to check out Jason Dunn's great review of the companionable SanDisk 1GB microSD card over at The Two Inch View.

1gb microSD's has been around for a while, but since July '05 there were posts in several sites that a 2gb was supposed to be released early 2006 which never happened.. i was searching around couple of days ago & found that Toshiba is going to release a 2gb by september, any one knows about any other brand or any info about a 2gb microSD :?:

Funny this posted today. I recently purchased a couple of 1gb microSD cards at BB for $35 after rebate. So today at work we have a power outage and the computer system goes down. I work in a medical office, and our computer system is archaic. So the external hard drive goes bad. It's a 1GB external drive with SCSI interface that is huge. Estimate to replace is 200. How hilarious is that.

Once you go big*, you can never go back. That's the biggest limit imo with these new smaller form factor, smaller capacity formats.
* That's big, capacity-wise, not necessarily size-wise.

In 1981 I was working on mainframe systems. At that time drives looked like washing machines. 1.6GBytes of disk space took 36 FEET of floor space.
