(I personally swap between three removable cards, which is why I don't install any programs on my cards.)

Yeah, I know you can work around that by putting the app in both cards, but that kind of silly work-around mentality needs to be stuffed back in its damn cage.
Yeah, but thats what ROM is for, not the card. And seriously, take a look at your used amount of ROM. Mine is like 30MB. We have plenty.

The internal storage here is to replace the storage card itself. fixed 4GB instead of ∞.
The card is used for media, programs, etc. Its your primary storage medium for the phone.

And remember you dont HAVE a card slot at all now. So those 3 cards are going away. You cant swap a movie card for your music card if you want to use the phone to watch that. You cant pull the card out and drop it in a SD reader in your computer for a quick program update, or to quickly drop a new song onto it. I have a 6GB card which is left in 99% of the time. I also have a 2GB for playing with android, and a 512 to backup the important stuff from the 6GB card. :shrug:
