With os 4.3 on your 8130, up to 8gb guaranateed.

Go all the way to 8gb or at least 4gb. I got a 2 and have to spend money to upgrade!

[jmgilliam]

wow - i was thinking 1gb would be plenty... LOL

Brand recommendations or are all about the same... ?

[jsanders]

Stick with the name brands, like SanDisk and others. There are some awesome deals on 2 and 4gb over at ecost.com

Make sure it is "Micro SD"

[jmgilliam]

THanks. Amazon has some good deals on Kingston. I had that brand on my Q....

I'll look at ecost. Thanks again.

Yep excellent deals... I'm happy with my Kingston 4GB MicroSD Card from ecost at $23.99 after $10 MIR.

OK, I'm confused... back in the day (2 months ago) when I used my Treo 700wx, I could store programs/software on the SD card. That was a large part of my memory. I hear people talking about 8gb and 16 gb cards... for what? is there that many ringtones out there that I'm missing? I didn't think that you could determine where a program is stored when you load it to your device... Why am I taking a long ride on the short bus for this one? What is everyone putting on their cards that they need such huge space for?

With the BB you can't as of yet put applications on the card.
But you can load pictures, full length movies, music!
An 8 gig card will hold about 20 or so full movies or about 1600 songs!

New Curve arrived today. The documentation makes it sound like I'll need a micro SD card for memory management. Is this true if I won't mess with videos, photos, or music? Does the SD card also help with making sure my e-mails don't get deleted, etc., or is it just needed for media?

[jsanders]

Moving media OFF your device memory to your SD Media card is where the device memory saving comes in.

Here is a tip for mem. card shoppers who have Verizon, I got my BB at the Verizon store inside of Circuit City and got them to price match the 4GB on Amazon. They looked it up and gave me the same price, less than half of what was on the CC sticker.

Didn't have to wait for it in the mail.
