Storage is very cheap, the fact that manufacturers change a premium is a different issue.

A 16gb sdcard costs about £10.

I meant expensive for the end consumer, the bump from 16gb to 32gb in mobile devices is ridiculous.

Just bought a 16gb... should arrive tomorrow. I'm coming from a single core Xperia Arc S so we'll see how it goes. It was a little underpowered for ICS.

I originally wanted a Lumia 920 but I'm not going to jump through hoops with ATT just so I can use it on Tmobile. Xperia Z looks awesome but it'll probably be over $600.

I traded my Note II for a Nexus 4 and DSC-HX100v Sony Camera today. Somebody made me the offer. Nice Deal, Think I'll finally settle down for a while. Value of items are quite similar so its ok.

I put the Note II for sale just to see what kind of trades I'd get. This one was worth it for me as I was in the market for a camera. (I posted would consider phone and camera combo deals)

The Nexus 4 has its shortcomings, but its still a nice phone for me and the 16.3MP 30x Optical Zoom camera works very well and will come in handy.

Think I'll just stay here for a while
