I switched from a 8gb micro sd to a 16gb last night, when i start up the phone it is very laggy, I noticed if i go into the music player it sists there and says "scanning" for about 10 minutes, after that the phone works fine...This happens every time i pull the battery though and is getting very annoying, any help would be appreciated.

It's supposed to so it can be indexed for faster access. I would be looking into why you do so many battery pulls.
i have a 16gb sandisk loaded to the max with music. No issues with overheating. Reloading after quickpull or battery pull does take 10-15 minutes. I'll live with it for the amount of music I can access. When the 32GB cards are available, I'll be right in line to buy one.

10-15 minutes ? you mean to reload the card or the OS ?
Rebooting the OS takes a good few mins thats for sure . . . but I've used 16gb Sandisk cards and there's not that much lag on them.
Kingston are crappy *IMO* but whatever, when buying, look for the sustained read and write cards and the burst speeds that the card is capable of.
Having said that, I have no idea what the maximum throughput the Bold can handle is lol.
This is fairly typical with large cards - as stated before they have to read and index all the data for later use.
If it's really a problem, like bt244 said, I'd check into why you're doing so many battery pulls. I haven't had to reboot in almost 2 months now so that annoying 10 minute indexing is a rare thought.
Anyways, regarding speeds, the Bold is pretty much always the bottleneck. The speed of the card is mostly determined by what "class" it is - most likely class 2 if you have a 16GB card (class 2, 4, 6 exist and higher number = faster). Regardless, this is only relevant for how fast your computer can read/write on the card because as stated, the Bold is the bottleneck when using it from your phone.
thanks all, yeah i pull the battery when i am messing with the phone (upgrading, adding programs,etc., i find its always good to do a pull after these types of actions). I am going to leave it alone now because i figured it was the 16gb being indexed, just didnt know if anyone knew of any real issues associated.
