Toshiba unleashes 32-GB SD cards

toshibasd.jpg
Storage options for devices such as cell phones, digital cameras, and portable media players are changing. While it used to be that you could buy a small SD card for a bit of storage, deferring to spinning hard disks when you needed more, that's no longer the case. With expandable storage options changing, platter-based drives are going out and flash drives are going in. Now that sizes of SD cards are getting bigger, people will be swapping them out of players and phones like CDs.

Just take a look at these new Toshiba SD cards. They're the first to hit a whopping 32 GB, which is bigger than most hard disk-based MP3 players. Imagine popping one of those in your digital camera; you'd never, ever run out of room. And you could keep your entire music collection on one or two of them, swapping them out in your phone or player to never be without your tunes. It's pretty great, and as soon as prices come down a bit look for them to be everywhere.

So much for Apple's big lead on mobile devices with high storage capacity.

Well too bad my music collection would need 14 of those 32GB cards. It's good for everything else I can think of though =)

As someone who is interested in getting into photography, this is awsome! A few hundred pics at 10 megs a file can easily waste away a lot of the SD cards currently on the market.

The only down side to this would be, can you imagine filling up a 32 gig SD card, then trying to download this to your computer for photo editing?!
