More memory always necessary ?
Lately there have been announcements of huge flash memory cards, up to 8 Gb in a single bank. Are we entering the era in mobile computing where more will always be necessary ? So far it seems that particularly PalmOS users are comfortable with 128 Mb of RAM, and if more is necessary an external flash card can be used. It seems that these large storage options are designed for multimedia files: music, video and such.
For my PDA I am very happy with 64Mb, as I don't use any large database or application. It just seems that manufacturers should be working on other features instead of playing this game of numbers. We still need more mobility and connectivity. We also need smaller and more long-lasting batteries.
