Apple/Moto iTunes Phone Uses SanDisk 512MB microSD Card

SanDisk Corporation announced that its 512-megabyte microSD card is bundled with the new Motorola ROKR phone with iTunes that was introduced this week. The new iTunes-enabled Motorola phone can store approximately 120 songs -- the equivalent of eight CDs worth of music--using the included SanDisk flash storage card. Currently, the 512MB SanDisk microSD card is the largest capacity available in this form factor. The company expects to have 1GB microSD cards in limited quantities by late Q4 2005 and 2GB cards in 2006. The 512MB SanDisk microSD card model is expensive now, running around $70 each. [Bill Fox]
