16GB MicroSD Cards Start To Make Their Way Out
I have not found any for sale on US shores yet but it looks like 16GB MicroSD cards are right around the corner. Marc on BoyGenius spotted a 16GB SanDisk for sale on a UK site. Here I found another UK seller claiming to have them in stock.
Ever since I got a Bold my MicroSD card has started to fill up. When it was just audio then 4-8GB was the sweet spot. But now with DivX support I am left with less than 100mb free on my card. The only problem I have is that I can’t seem to find any documentation confirming that the Bold will support 8GB+ card. I remember reading it somewhere but I can’t find it anymore.
Here is to hoping that the card comes out soon. It seems that popular consensus has the 16GB cards coming out very soon for somewhere between $79-$99. Which fits in with the announced $99 price point.
BTW: What the hell ever happened to their 12GB card…

Here is the RIM’s KB where it says that BB OS 4.6 supports up to 16GB.

If anyone can get their hands on one and has 4.5.0.81 (GSM), supposed to work!
Hmm, from that chart I guess RIM isn’t acknowledging yet that 4.7 exists…
