$200 is expensive as hell, going from a 16 to 32 gig device like a ZuneHD where the memory is built in. The difference less than $100, since a plain ole 16 gig device already has 1/2 that space you're not paying much for 32 gigs. 32 gigs for $200 would be over 4 times the price which is pretty expensive IMHO.

ZuneHD 16 gig is $179 on Amazon
ZuneHD 32 gig is $239 on Amazon

But this 32 gig card is a good deal if you must have 32 gigs of space on a card.

If you really need it, you'll pay for it.

Too bad it's only class 2. I think microsd 16gb class 6 is around $60 - $100 now.

Another good news about this is that we should see SSDs of 300+GB.

The current generation of MicroSD cards appear to be limited to 32GB and that the next step will be MicroSDXC.

My next purchase for a device that uses MicroSD is likely to be the HTC Evo and the info indicates it will come with an 8GB card but will be capable of taking up to 32GB cards. I do hope it will be MicroSDXC compliant so I can expect to be able to use even larger cards like the 128GB ones when they come out.
