Recently cellphones are not more simply a "portable phone", but complex devices featuring a lot of functions like a small computer. This created a constantly growing need for more storage capacity.
Portable device enthusiasts will be happy to know that SanDisk announced it has begun to sample 12-gigabyte microSDHC flash memory cards to major phone manufacturers for testing and evaluation.
SDHC is the designation for any SD or SD-based card that is larger than 2GB and adheres to the new SD 2.00 specification required for cards and hosts to support 4GB to 32GB capacities. The specification was developed by the SD Association, an industry standards board, which has also created three classes to define minimum sustained data transfer speed. These cards adhere to the SD Speed Class 4 Rating.
As usual, there is no information about the street price, but at the moment I'm sure that it is not exactly cheap...
