The subject says it all. Anyone wants it?
how much?
Honestly I don't know what it's worth nowadays. I guess I'll sell it to the highest bidder, once I unpack my stuff (just moved).

wouldnt it be wiser to put this on ebay if you want bids?
The 12gb MicroSDHC is shipping on 03/10/08, and the 16gb will be out by ETA June 08
http://www.memorysuppliers.com/sa12trmimmec.html
Has anyone gotten their hands on a 12GB yet?
Works great? Any problems? Better pricing then 179USD?
16gb in june... i'll wait for that.
As we push to 12 and 16gig, I wonder if the phone will have any issues with them. I know that they will probably be read OK, just wondering if there will be any performance hit with the file system keeping track of it all? I'm no cook and have read here and there about this being a possible issue?
Holding at 8gig , I'll wait and see on this next generation. Damned amazing, these capacities in this form factor!
I picked up a 6GB SanDisk card the 2nd week I had my Tilt and I love the enourmous amounts of space... but, I am a geek and thusly a power user, and more space would be appreciated... I'm happy to see the limits being pushed and I can't wait until the 16GB cards become common place. (I like to be ahead of the curve on occassion, but paying the premium all the time isn't doable for a college student.) I'll pick up a 16GB card once they fall around $100 or so. (I think I paid $70 for my 6GB.)

I second that. the form factor is mind boggling. I currently have a kaiser with an 8gig card. and I have more than 7gigs to spare. What am going to d with 16 gigs?!? Well .... I guess I'll find out in October 2008 huh, lol? Yeah, I know it'll come out in June, but I'll wait a tick until the price drops. Perhaps a 24 gigs will surface by december 2008. Who knows.
ya. the maximum capacity is 32gb but that will probably come out next year. i think 24gb by December.
Why bother for an iPod/Iphone after all.
I use 4gif now but mostly listen / watch the same content.
Honestly, how much % is really usefull when you stock your card full with 5000 songs hehe?
I have 8gb and thats more than amples, no doubt 12gb and 16gb will cost silly amounts of money, you may as well buy an ipod for the price,
What do people estimate, £70+ for the 12gb?

my 8gb has around 500mb left....
I have music, videos, pictures, software, all programs installed to it, tomtom with all maps and such....
cant wait for 16gb and 32
btw I got my 8gb in ebay for $50 shipped, brand new......
cdrdvdrmedia.com has the Kingston 2GB MicroSD Card With 2 Adapters for $12.50 and the 4gb for $25 ... the price fall for these "out-date" memory cards is very fast ... who wants a 2 or 4 gb when you could get larger ... I think the same will happen with the sizes that have yet to come out ... especially once the 32gb comes out ... all lower cards will drop in price... and the 32gb will drop the slowest... is my guess.
Unless you're loading programs like tomtom with all of the maps, and/or a ton of media, all most normal people would need is the 2gb card... we don't have any of them on this site, "normal people"

I agree. Once the 32gb comes out next year, the price drop will most likely be the slowest until higher capacity cards come out. Glad I'm patient. By the time it comes out next year, I'll probably have 2 or 3gbs remaining on the 8gb card I have now.
I'm also thinking by that time, a (Kaiser) tweak will be discovered by then and it'll enable you to use more than a 32gb card in your Kaiser, (as a tweak was discovered for the htc herald) several months ago.
I'm still boggled by the 12gb card. That's a lot of "stuff" on a single device to be carrying around with you. Just a high capacity memory card can doom the iphone.
The most il pay for that fingernail sized piece of plastic is $60. I just picked up my 4 GB for like 25$

I can't imagine getting by with a 2 GB or even a 4 GB card! I've almost filled up my 8 GB card, with music, videos, and games. I'm going to wait a little while after the 16 GB card comes out and see if someone is selling it relatively cheaply on EBay. That's where I got my 8 GB card, for quite a reasonable price.
flashy, once the card is in the phone, you don't really need to remove it often. Less chance that it will get lost or broken if you just leave it in the phone. I add stuff to it by syncing, or I use total commander to delete stuff I no longer want on it.

Videos My Friend. Perhaps of scantily clothed women pillow fighting? Or Of your dumbass friend GhostRiding. Thats all thats on the internet these days anyway. Back in my day the internet didn't have pictures let alone videos...... AND WE LIKED IT!
I have some songs, but I guess I'll just have to get some music videos and games .
I got my Kaiser and a 8gb card as a package deal, but my next card will most likely be a 16gb or a 24gb card.
I notice that all versions I see are only 16 GB of storage. I am sorry but that is pretty damn weak for a tab. The iPad goes to 64 GB.
I heard that there were 7.7 tabs up to 64 GB but haven even seen a 32 gb version around.
Is this something that is just planned for the distant future or is there a 32 gb and up version out somewhere?
Fom what i have seen, only 16Gb models are in stock for now.
32Gb and 64Gb will be available later on I guess.

Yeah, the iPad goes up to 64GB, BUT, the iPad lacks a micro SD slot, AND since 64GB micro SD cards have already been confirmed working in the 7.7, there's your 64GB version right there!
Now... I wonder how much a 128GB micro SD card would be...
the 7.7 comes in 16, 32 and 64 versions
32 is already available for order from Expensyve... i mean Expansys
i'm waiting for the 64 GB version already own a 64 GB microSD so that'll adds up to 128 GB
and if they release the 128 microSD later this year/next year, then i'll definitely get it too and make this device a 192 GB portable entertainment unit ... and work of course... that's the whole reason we're getting it for anyways for "work" file under business expenses

Don't get me wrong, having 64 GB of internal storage would be nice and all, but honestly, with how much of my media I put on the cloud anyway, having a 64 GB external SD card is plenty good for me.
The way I'm set up now, all my pictures and music are stored in the cloud, and I basically just use my SD card for TV and movies.
But everyone is different!
P.S. Where are you seeing the 7.7 as being available on Expansys? Either the 16 or the 32 GB version. Both the US and the Canadian sites show it as a pre-order only (still!!!)...
P.P.S Nevermind, I see it on the UK site. £599 though?! Ouch... That's like $945 USD!! Good lord...

yeah Expansys prices are always over the top vs. other retailers
16 gb = 499, 32 gb = 599, so if and when the 64 gb version does come out i'm sure it's going to be 699 pounds
hoping to find it on other places. definitely not buying it at those over priced prices from expansys

Yes, a SD card is fine, but NOT if you want to use Dropbox, which doesn't work with SD, only internal storage (unless that recently changed).
So yes, I'm waiting for 64GB as well and so far, nothing in Spain

If you root and edit the platform.xml file then all apps such as Dropbox can then write to the external SD card.

If you don't want to root your device then yeah, nothing but the stock apps will be able to save to the SD card. You can still transfer files via MTP, but that's not the same.

I don't know about you, but currently, my dropbox space is only at 2GB, so that's a non-issue for me.
Besides that, with the external SD card permissions modified, how can you change where dropbox saves anyway? I haven't found the option in its settings...

The latest version of Dropbox has an option to "export to SD card". It doesn't create its own folders like previous versions but just lets you save files individually in your location of choice.

Yeah but 64 GB SD cards are still a ripoff. When they get down to $59 where they should be then that is a good option. You can get 32 GB for around $30.00 and 64 GB is around $200, that is ridiculous!

Yeah everyone is different and handing control of access to my stuff to the "cloud" is a poor option for me. I am not always connected to the net, and don't want to be just to look at a picture or listen to a song/album etc. I also would opt for a wifi only version as I don't want to pay for expensive 3G service. Plus SD access is much quicker than constantly downloading from the "cloud" and battery life is much better without having the modem radio always on . A 32 GB internal option would be nice for me I just hope it doesn't take them forever to release it.

I bought mine on Amazon for about $150, which yeah, it's expensive, but it's still less than the ~$200 more you could expect to pay for a 64GB 7.7, not to mention that the cost of external memory will inevitably get cheaper anyway. Just my 2 cents.

Yeah but I want the internal mostly for apps and external for data (music, video, pictures etc). The thing I know is that "16 GB" is really not 16 GB. After they get done bloating it up with all of the crap they usually put on there you are lucky if you have 10 GB left.
Plus having 32 GB internal doesn't mean that I couldn't add 64 GB SD later when they get reasonable. More is always more and card swapping sucks (but at least you can do it unlike Apple stuff).

True. However, supposedly ICS will bring the ability to install apps to external storage. If this is the case, then that vastly improves what you can install.
For me, the way I currently run my 7.7, I minimize my internal memory usage by keeping my heavyweight media on my external SD (like movies and TV). My internal storage is almost exclusively used for apps and app data. All of my pictures and music are cloud-sourced, so if any of that is actually on my device, it's because it has been stored in the application cache data. By doing this, I still have about 8GB of headroom on my internal storage (out of the 13GB available), which is still plenty enough for me and whatever other apps I decide to install.
More than anything though, I'd rather have the 16GB model as soon as it's available, and then upgrade it with 64GB of external storage, than have to wait weeks, or even months, for the 32 or 64 GB versions.
I agree, more is always better of course, but I just don't have the patience to wait for it. If you do, then my hat goes off to you!

Well it depends on how long it will be before the 32 GB ships out. If it is like 3 months away or something I would probably bite the bullet and get the 16 GB. All I know is that how things usually go is that I buy the 16 GB THEN they announce a week later that the 32 GB is shipping.
Having a 16 GB version at all seems dumb. I mean 32 GB micro SDs are around $30 and they make money selling them. The actual cost difference between 16 and 32 GB internal chip to Sammy (they actually make the flash memory) is what, $5.00? I would think it would cost more just to keep track of and make all of these different ones.
The GT-6810 (16Gb & 32Gb WiFi) has been available here for a couple of weeks now (Oz). That is when I got mine. No 3G models released yet AFAIK.

Well, I've been saving up for a new phone for ages and the Nexus 4 seems to be the best choice.
I don't have that much money for the 16GB.
If I buy the 8GB how much space will I "Really" have to use.
Some people are telling me I will have a FULL 8GB free to my self, others are telling me the OS takes up some space by default and I'll have like 2GB free for my self.
Can someone please tell me the truth.
You will have 6.9 -ish GB of memory.
Don't kill me if that's wrong, but no one knows the exact space, but surely you won't get fully 8GB
Your NOT going to get the full 8GB. No doubt about it.

Well I hope we have more than 6GB of space because I like to keep my music on my phone.
5.42gb free on 8gb model. Lower than I had hoped, probably going 16gb now.

I think 2 gb will be reserved for App and 6 gb will be available for use. .
I heard about 5.5GB (if you search some reviews I believe there are some screenshots of the storage screen), can anyone else chime in. Will the full 8GB all be the same speed? Any idea how it will be partitioned? My One X has about 2GB for the system/firmware, about 5GB classed as internal storage and then about 9GB classed mSD card, so I don't know if it is one 16GB 'chip array' running at the same speed.
It's too bad the phone is already so long. It'd have been nice to make / buy a case that had a built in battery and more storage via usbotg. Hell, it still might be a decent idea. I can't live with one battery.. 8gb I can probably manage.
8 gigs is really not bad. I will use my phone for calls,text,pics so on so on. My N7 with 8 GB is my PlayStation has all my games, Google drive will help me upload all my photos. Its really not bad once you put things away
#Galaxy Nexus HSPA+
On the Nexus 7 8gb it is 5.92gb free after mandatory system files. Thats with Jellybean 4.1 though, 4.2 might be a little bigger (or smaller).
I would expect around 5.5gbs of space left on a stock phone.
Afaik, with this nexus, there are no partitions. So the 5.5gb you get is not restricted to 2gb for data, 4gb for music etc.
At least there's one positive. Although, I also think that 5.5gb out of 8gb is on the low side.

Honestly, for $50 more, just the get the 16GB. Whats $50 when your already spending $300?
Hey folks,
I wanted to ask if it's worth buying the version with 8 gigs of RAM instead the one with 6 gigs.
I've read that OP stated that it can't be fully utilized now but it allegedly can be made use of when developers make apps for it with the huge RAM in mind.
Is it worth it? Will the huge RAM make a difference in the future? Thanks in advance.
PS: I already bought the 126gb/8gb version on the first day, minutes after the end of the presentation. Posted this on it.
The ram may not make a huge difference at the moment but the double storage at 128GB might
I'd second the above, worry more about the built in storage than the RAM. I've got the 8/128GB version, but it was for the storage rather than the RAM.

The short answer is No.
The long answer is: it all depends on what kind of person you are; for example some people are OCD and close apps and clear notifications every single moment. Others leave things and come back to them later and would like the convenience of it being the way they left it. As for me I fully agree with the 2 people above the storage option and freedom of not worrying is priceless honestly but if you could monetize it 60 extra bucks (USD) is a raging steal because some other companies charge you as if you're buying a whole new phone for 128gb.
TL;DR It's what you value most that matters, if you take pictures listen to music locally, and open apps and like them being open the next time you reach for your phone then you make the choice that suits you
The answer (mine) is yes. Better get the 8GB/128GB model if you plan to keep it more than a day.
I've read also somewhere that the 6GB RAM is less fast than the 8GB, not the same kind inside the phone.
you would be paying less for more if you buy the 128/8gb version..
540$ 128gb - 4,21875$ per GB - 8gb Ram 67,5$ per gb RAM
480$ 64gb - 7,5 per GB - 6gb RAM 80$ per gb RAM
