The chip speed issue doesn't bother me. Thousands of identical chips are first produced,
then tested at various clock speeds, then labelled (aka 'binning'). Personally, I hope for a conservative
clock speed - it will consume less power, run cooler and last longer. Everyone on these forums
can over/under clock, if they wish.
Rumored lack of SD storage IS disappointing, as I like swappable media storage (cloud
solutions will eat up the dataplan), but given the sweet form-factor, it's probably a victim
of the slim, non-user openable design.
Speaking of which, I seem to be alone wondering/worrying that this device will NOT have
an easily replaceable battery (like iDevices). Since my first Moto in '94, I've always had
a spare charged battery on hand.
However, I'm glad I hesitated when the Bionic launched ...
