Bigger Better, Faster More

When I bought my 4GB (4000MB) memory card for my handphone, people say i 'Siow'. Need so much space for what!!? Howlien!! Well, i just replied, i needed the space. Aniwae got use ur money meh? There is a practicality for a bigger memory space as nowadays handphones are getting more advanced. Instead of just handling phone calls and smses, phones nowadays can do so much more and all these takes up space. Look at the following:

A typical MP3 song with a 128 bitrate (CD quality) will take an average of 4MB for a 4 minute song. U have 10 songs and the total space will be about 40MB .

Videos in 3GP format, especially music videos, will also take up a similar space.

Not to mention the amount of memory needed to take pictures on 2 mega pixel phone camera. Heck! They now have 3.2 mega pixel phone camera! Wah lau eh!

As u can see, 80 - 90MB is easily taken up. Not to mention other applications which u may put inside such as games. So eventually, ur memory will definately run out and ur gonna need a bigger space. Having a bigger memory space can also act as a backup for other files. These too takes up space.

Anyway, as of today, I'm left with onli 500MB. If anybody has any news an 8GB space is available, dun forget to tell me hor.
