Yeah, I think those are 2 really bad justifications. Android has file managers, you don't need them for most things, but the ability to transfer a file from a remote computer, an sdcard, a webdav server, etc. makes the OS more usable in those instances where you do need those things. > Everybody likes the idea of having an SD card, but in reality it's just confusing for users. If you’re saving photos, videos or music, where does it go? Is it on your phone? Or on your card? Should there be a setting? Prompt everytime? What happens to the experience when you swap out the card? It’s just too complicated. This is pretty easy to answer; you do it exactly like you do it when there is no sdcard. Leave 3rd party apps for power users to extend the base functionality with outside storage. |

I disagree. The SD card confuses people. I have several friends who bought a Galaxy Ace. It had very low internal memory but they thought that was ok as they could put an SD card in. Problem is they had no idea they couldn't store apps on the SD card. Now they're pissed off. They don't understand this limitation and don't care. It makes Google/Android look bad.
