I'm debating on whether to get a 1GB SD card or a smaller size. Besides the obvious such as watching movies and storing MP3s.
What eslse do you guys do with your 1GB SD card?
dumping maps on it for tomtom for instance
Install my games, MP3, movies to it.
I have favourite cab files, mp3, movies and audiobooks on mine.
Sooner or later you will fill the 1GB card.
You can never have enough memory!
gps gps gps
maps + maps + maps + maps

Besides the fact that you're off topic, I think it's important to keep this forum free from political statements.
Loads of stuff goes on the card. Believe me if you buy smaller, you'll regret it. Go for the 1GB.
TomeRaider and Wikipedia, which takes up over 500 Kb. I love being able to carry the entire wikipedia with me wherever I go!
Even 1GB is tight.
You have to watch which pictures/which maps/which MP3s/which books you install.
It's no Free-For-All!
With 1GB, you have manage your memory carefully.
It's not like the old days!
Depending on what you're storing. I have my MP3s, movies, data files (pocket word, Excel, PDFs, pictures).
I'd agree xda-rocks -> you can never have enough memory.
If you can wait .. when the prices drop, pick up a 2GB.. or 1GB x2. Either way, i only had my 1GB card for 3 weeks, running out of space already
movies... songs... all sort of stuff...
storage and memory are never enuff
ebooks.... thousands of ebooks
and music, and pictures. i have the camera save all the pictures and video to the gig card
Well hell, IF I had a 1gig storage card, I would use it to store 3 days of backups, that would round to about 180mb. then use the rest for movies, music, and file sharing when I have my webserver running on my BA at the hot spot.
PS. if you get a card that large, invest in a usb card reader on your main computer. Makes life that much easier.
cheers
how do you organize it all? is there a program you use to organize the program installations?
i use it first to store 3 backup files (3 weeks' worth), a whole bunch of movies, games, data files, and programs. have to agree, you can't have enough memory =)
the backup files really are essential. and i usually make sure i have at least 2 of them on hand, in case the latest one is unstable.
somynex =)
I have a 1GB 66x SD card, with the i-mate ROM update and WMP10. I now sync to "Napster To Go" and have a great little media center.
Also store TomTom maps, all additional software is installed to the SDcard too.
As soon as I find a 2GB 66x card, i'll get one of those.
I have recently got a 2G card with my Navigon 5 Update
So I store normally a 250Mb Card of Germany, now for Holidays I stored a 1Gig card of Europe on it, removed some MP3s and of course have 3 or 4 Weeks of Weekly Fullbackups (sprite backup) on it.
So I have normally over 1Gig of MP3s on it , one map for navigon and some games and my backups...
First of all I apologize for using this forum for business.
But this place has been a home for me since I’ve owned xda devices. And not only a home but a lot of help and learning resources!
And I will make a donation to this forum once the device is sold since it has been the resource for all the upgrading I’ve done to the device.
This device has been used for one month. And I used it very carefully so it is in excellent condition. Like brand new. Never overcklocked. I am not a havy user.
The important thing about the device is that it is CID unlocked! And it has never been SIM locked.
It means you can install any OS rom into device. Upgrade or downgrade!
And use any sim card from any provider.
Also I’m selling with towns of software with registration.

What do you guys have in your kaiser?
On my 6GB card I normally have:
1G TomTom maps (East & West Europe)
3 x full length movies
2500 mp3's
20MB cab files (ready for after a new rom flash)
100+ MB for files and photos.
what i do with 8gig
I have been using a tool called mojopac (http://www.mojopac.com ) it is a portable desktop environment. You run it, and install your apps on "c:" which is the phone, then just plug your phone into any pc (even mac with parallels) and you are on your isolated desktop. It supports a large variety of apps (like microsoft office, adobe production suite CS3 etc) all native inside the virtual desktop. It is not a VM so it is very fast to load and run.
It is so powerful, that i no longer carry a laptop to and from work. Just my phone. Used it for years, 8 gig is enough, 12 is perfect.
They have a FREE version (worth the $$ for the pro). It will be vista capable in the next month or so.
Only trick is you need to turn your device into a usb storage device. Get wm5storage (free, some problems see this site for details http://www.pocketpcfreeware.com/en/index.php?soft=1543) or cardexport II(not free but works on install http://www.softick.com) to bypass activesync issue.
1G TomTom maps (East & West Europe)

Absolutley great free package! Works best with Softick Card Export (good UI) and you have to do a workaround with WM5torage as it is not fully working on the 'Kaiser'.
Cheers!
Wow 2500 MP3s? What bit rate are you using?
Mount it under Linux and then run this command:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/bigspacewaster bs=4096k count=1500000

Haha...I did not even notice that. Let's calculate this:
He's got:
1G TomTom maps (East & West Europe)
5 x full length movies
2500 mp3's
100 Albums.
1,000MB on Tomtom - Remaining 5GB
5 full-length movies - probably around 200MB each - Remaining 4GB
100 Albums - probably around 200MB total - Remaining 3800MB
3800MB/2500 mp3s = 1.52MB per mp3
Dang...that's like a 32kbps!
Haha...I sure hope not!
On my 6 gig I have:
1.5G of Tom Tom Maps (North America and NY/NJ/CT...etc., etc.)
1.3G of iGuidance maps
640M of youtube vids, tv shows, movies
400M of iGo maps
364M of pictures (3,553 photos)
500M of backups and CAB files
150M of installed programs (about 40 programs at any times; adding some to try out, deleting others)

Eye-Fi offers an Android application for uploads from the camera to an Android device. This should work with the Mobile X2 SD card from Eye-Fi.
Anybody has tested or uses this combination?
http://uk.eye.fi/products/mobilex2
https://market.android.com/details?id=fi.eye.android
Works fine on my NookColor, running CM7
Did you test the maximal possible distance between the camera and the Nook?
By distance, do you mean the number of routers in-between?
No, the max distance in meters between the camera with the Eye-fi MobileX2 SD card and the Nook with WiFi enabled. With Direct Mode you don't need a router: http://www.eye.fi/how-it-works/features/direct-mode
MobileX2 SD card http://uk.eye.fi/products/mobilex2
Instead of using a dedicated small (and quite expensive) monitor with HDMI attach to the camera I could use the MobileX2 SD card and the Nook to check the images on a bigger screen. My camera is usually on a tripod and I'm using a wireless trigger.
@OP
The app review feedbacks on Android Market were informative, probably more than what you can elicit on here. Also, you should have a look at the Eye-Fi forum, http://forums.eye.fi/viewforum.php?f=23
The app looks like it has been in rapid iteration, so at least development is active. That said, my feeling from reading the feedback is that the Android app at least is a work in progress. Also, if it takes 30s to upload a photo, then the latency would limit the feature's usefulness to after-the-fact viewing. Of course, if you're taking scenic shots (as opposed to, say, action photos) then it probably doesn't matter.
Sorry, I don't have an Eye-Fi firsthand. Your post piqued my interest, so I did some fingerwork through the Google pages.
I got direct user feedback on the Eye-Fi forum. Conclusions: the upload in Direct Transfer is still too slow, also with smaller jpeg files. Not worth getting an Eye-Fi for my needs to view the image on the fly at the monitor.

In terms of speed. Eye-Fi Cards will save media at > Class 6 speeds. Specifically -- 12MBps.
Our upload speed is 12mbps (that's 1.5MBps), best case. So just divide your JPG or movie file, by 1.5, and you'll be able to estimate the transfer speed.
Helps?

I'm an iPhone user, considering buying a capable Android phone with a small screen size. Xperia Z3 Compact is a serious candidate, it comes with 16GB flash (built in) with possibility to expand up to 128GB microSD. Is microSD extension (from the user point of view) fully equivalent to internal flash, or are there restrictions?
I know if I buy 128GB iPhone6, all that space is instantly available for anything that I want to put there (software, multimedia, in-app data). Moreover, I do not care or use any multimedia files, such as photos, videos, music. The extended memory will be used purely for app's software and in-app data. For example: offline navigation maps, Dropbox offline files, epub books, etc.

LOL, sarcasm from previous post aside, and to answer the question, currently you can only save photos/videos/music and that depends mostly if the apps you are using allow writing to the sdcard. Sony has added a nice feature in Storage to monitor and manually move the three types above. My Nexus 5 did not have this, so it is nice that Sony stepped up. However, as you stated, you basically want full reign over the sdcard, and that is not going to happen with ICS, unless you root the device. I have read that Google is lightening up its restrictions with the new Lollipop OS re sdcards, so you may want to wait.
Best to check the biggest apps if they support using sd. Sygic offline maps for example can be used from the sd.
