    SD Slot & Removable Batery Discussion

    I see comments in phone-specific threads, and thought maybe we should have a more general look at the two camps. . SD Slots: yea, it sounds like a good idea, and user friendly. But the manufacturers see if as a way to charge $100 for each step up. If the base size phone memory became 32GB...
