Re: What's the actual *advantage* of HAVING an sd slot?

Marion,

Than what is you hang-up with demanding an sd-card slot ?   'Cause all it
does is extend that ammount.

Good question. I didn't make it clear what the logical argument is.
The keyword is "internal storage".

Let's try again...
1. 64GB is by no means enough storage for a phone of today...
2. But it's well within the bounds of enough "internal storage".

Again, this is simplified as people seem to want simpler logic.

You claim to be logical about it, but the above doesn't make any sense. It
either is, or isn't enough.

Try again, and *explain* why you think its both enough and too little.
Maybe it makes sense to you, but we are not mindreaders.

Also, tell us how much you think you need and why (what you want to use it
for) (part of the above explanation?).

I myself have a 128GB model, with more than 100GB free (and have OSMAND, a
number of epub books, some music, some conferances and a few games on it).
On the other hand, a friend of mine terribly wants a 1TB (or even bigger)
model, so he can store *all* of his music on it.  IOW, different people,
different requirements.

But if I understand you right, all your ranting is about extending the
phones base memory - and you give off the vibe of demanding to be able to do
that at the for what you think is the cheapest way.

The thing is that I have no problem with you wanting everything as cheap as
you can get it for, but you're passing a boundary, violating our right to
make our own choices, when you try to force everyone else to agree with you.

IOW, don't.

As much as I think that my friend with his music collection is silly to want
it all on his phone, he thinks I'm silly for not even having used up the
first 28GB.  We still are friends and respect each others choices in this
regard.

Also, as long as you get stuck on that "it *must* be an sd-card" you keep
yourself blind for other possibilities, like the usage of a thumbdrive.  You
never explained why that would not be a possibility for you.

You want to be taken seriously ?   Than do yourself a favour and take our
input to you seriously.   Again, you don't need to agree, but an explanation
for a rejection is expected (and helpfull to figure out other
possibilities).
