Yep, they can go upto 32GB using the FAT file structure, but I'd say they won't be available for a little while..

Not true. The SE site only states that each model can support the latest sized mem stick. So for example currently SE are claiming 2GB as the maximum, this is only because the 4GB has not been released yet. You can't advertise a product can do something when the equipment isn't actually available. Before the 2GB was released, SE claimed the K750 maximum was 1GB (the largest available mem stick at the time), yet many people on this forum even are running 2GB sticks in their K750's. Shortly after the 2GB came out, SE modified the site from 1 to 2GB as the K750 maximum.
It's likely the K750 (and W800) will support memory all the way up to the theoretical duo limit of 32GB, but pretty much definite that it will support the 4 and 8GB sticks coming out soon.

I can understand that type of memory running multiple apps and programs on a PPC phone. However why would someone need over 2 gigs on a non PDA phone, or better yet even 2 gigs?
I don't get it. Some please enlighten me. Is it to avoid carrying an I pod ?

I carry a 2GB in my w800 and YES, it is to avoid having a stand-alone MP3 player.
Personally I can't wait for the 8GB Duo Pro, then I don't have to decide which songs from my music library I want on my phone.

Everyone's different reo. I have 512MB and already I have to make compromises between what songs and videos I want to have available when out and about listening to music. I also can't use the lower level of compression I want (since I have to make songs smaller so more fit onto the card). If the phone couldn't play mp3's or videos, then there would be no point in having more than 256 or even 128MB. But a mulltimedia phone like the K750 etc can be as useful as an ipod given enough memory.
So you might as well ask, why carry an ipod (or other hard disk based mp3 player)? If one would carry an ipod, then why not carry a device that combines an ipod and a phone in one handset?
I would more put it to you like this: why would you need 2GB or more on a PDA? Afterall 2GB would give you space for an aweful lot of Symbian programs - do you know many pda users who could actually use 2GB of program storage? I think you'll find that peeps with pda's that have large memory cards, more often fill those memory cards with multimedia and not programs.

people carry 2GB of space becuase of the amount and size of their data. you don't need to run mulple apps at the same time (in a PPC) to jsutify you should cary a 2GB memory.
People carry songs, files, pictuer and whatever more. also BTW. you can run multpile app using 10 MB of memory. so do you want to enlighten us by your statement?
so are you enlighten enough? |
