ATT should of included a 32gb S3.

I'm not so sure about that. If someone steals your phone and you use a PIN or password, they're probably not getting into your phone. But they can still pop the cover off, take out the SD card, put it in their computer, and access every file on it.

Lol touch? didn't think about that

I dont think its a wise idea to store anything on the phone memory except for apps and contact information, having it on an SD card is more secure and its even way easier to manage without it having to slow down your phone. The only benefit to having a large phone memory is installing more apps,but are u really gonna keep that many apps on your phone??

i partly agree with you. I mean i keep all my media on the SD card (64gig) and leave the internal memory alone just for apps and the like. I dont do this simply for security though but more so that i can set up proper folders and know where my stuff is at. More so.. 16gbs is plenty for apps but its not alot. I mean i dont have a bunch of apps but i do have a few "full feature" games. Those ones that come with a 1.5gb download. with just a handful of those the internal memory is taken up quite a bit. But its really not that big of a deal though.

Yeah, SD cards sound great on paper, but if my phone is stolen, they could just pop out the card and A.) Smash it or B.) put it in their PC and see all my stuff.

Wow, Apple needs to hire you, sounds like an argument they'd make for no removable memory!

A.) If your phone is stolen, they can smash the phone without much more difficulty than smashing the card - same result!

B.) Yeah, and if they really want to see all my music and family pictures, then I guess I'm in trouble - well, except I can install one of many file/folder encryption apps from the Play Store, and then they won't be able to see a thing - and I'm STILL a whole lot better off with the flexibility of removable storage and the ability to store up to either 80G or 96G on my Galaxy S3.

If Apple tried to hire me, I'd tear their letter/ delete their email on the spot.

I like the idea of removable memory, but I've had one too many SD cards go kaput on me.

I've had hard drives go kaput on me too - that's why smart folks will always employ some form of ongoing backup strategy/plan, whether its with their smartphone data or their PC data.
