    Well well well, if it isn't Agent Double-o Douchebag. Well, Mister Mayer, you have crooned your last. I'm afraid your fellow douchebags cannot save you. Your friends Matthew McConaughey and Johnny Knoxville have donated their heads to my decor.

    If they want that much money for a 16gig card they are fucking mental.
    Hell, even the 4 gig is stupid. You can get an 8-gig MicroSDHC and reader for 20 bux at Fry's. Yeah it's a little bit bigger, but not much.

    @LolpantsofArabia: No, a 16gb microSDHC is pretty fucking expensive. But not $160.

    If they were $30 I'd have one by now (I have a Sansa Fuze and have been waiting for them to come in to the $30 range).

    I may be wrong, but I don't think that 16GB is on board. It looks to me like a 16GB card is included.

    Is a Wi-Fi card that size even large enough to have an antenna effective for the wavelength? Wolfram Alpha says the wavelength is about 12cm for 2.4GHz...

    If Verizon gets religion and starts including WiFi in more (all?) their data devices the I would agree that this wouldn't seem too useful in cellphones, as the writer suggests. BUT, if things don't change, then this would be very useful. Today it would be perfect for the Storm and the Tour.

    Speaking of WiFi, can someone with some technical knowledge explain why data devices (iphone, BB etc.) don't have 802.11N yet. I mean, it would be a much faster experience, right ?

    @RemembertheAmiga: Power, maybe, but mostly the fact that it's unnecessary for now. Processing power is already the main bottleneck in web browsing, not 802.11g.

    @RemembertheAmiga: Correct me if I'm wrong but I also believe that currently the Eye-Fi technology (and this new product since it's similar) does not have the ability to be a two way wifi device. I believe they are only used for uploading files. Although it would still be helpful to have this ability in Verizon data devices, it think it would be even better if there was the ability for two-way data transfer.

    @Purple Monkey Dishwasher: They are only used to upload files with the EyeFi cards, but the device has to be capable of both sending and recieving to be able to send anything over a network. TCP will not work if you are just sending or listening. So this new card might allow us (since we know it has to be capable) to use it as a wifi connection for the phone. Perhaps through some applications?

    @TeriyakiChicken: Yeah that's a good point, I always thought that was weird. I wonder why Eye-Fi limits it to one way communication. I would be cool to see your camera as a wireless device on your computer and be able to add/delete photos and files from your computer. They could surely make a lot of money if they added a two way functionality. Especially for things like digital photo frames and any other appliances/devices. You could literally control/monitor a lot of things in your home.

    Although I understand that Murphy's law predicts continually increasing storage and a continual decrease in size of the storage medium, I do think they should really stop at MicroSD for removable storage mediums. I don't care how small they make non-removable drives but if the removable ones get any smaller there needs to be an addition to Murphy's law which states that the smaller these damn things get, the easier they are to lose.

    CR-7100 will hold one 16GB microSD, while the

    CR-7000 holds one 32GB SD. The 7200 will be available for $30 and the 7100 and 7000 for $25


    is that confusing and universe-shattering to anyone else?

    In reply to Sony Ericsson Ditches Memory Stick Micro in Cellphones, Goes with MicroSD
    Come on, guys - show a little sympathy for the poor company. Their proprietary formats were nothing more than a sign of their market dominance and ability to shove things down our throat, regardless of how much we might scream. Mini discs, Betamax, UMD, memory sticks, Blu-ray - every Sony turn involved formats that no one wanted, and most survived purely on Sony's gumption. Now they are dropping formats faster than I dropped my drawers on prom night (unfortunately, I should have waited until after the dancing portion of the evening).


    Seriously, not all of Sony's formats are "bad", it just happens that seemingly none of them are very successful. All that will be left of Sony now is products that look like everyone else's, and is that really what we want? Maybe (or perhaps we just want them to disappear) - but, I would not mind Sony dabbling in some more unwanted formats in the future, if for no other reason than to let us know they are still Sony.
