The above link suggests Apps may slow down on the SD card which makes sense.

I'm trying out the Dolphin and Opera Browsers. Any downside to keeping them on SD? I have a class 2 card and 186 MB free on my EVO.

In my opinion, unless you need the space on your EVO's internal memory, don't move anything.

Do certain sd cards have faster reading -input/output speeds?

I have the standard sd card that came with my epic. What sd would you guys recommend?

SD cards have a class that indicates their speed. Class 2 is common and slow but generally good enough. Class 6 is very fast. Class 4 is pretty fast.

I did a little diging. I've learned a class 4 will be the best cards for our phone.

Exactly my philosophy. Who knows what an App will do if for some reason the SD card doesn't properly mount.

Well that's pretty simple. It won't run at all.

Once an application is loaded from the card, it normally works fine, so my view is that application load time will be slower. If the application is important or "mission critical," it needs to be in main memory.
