16.

Since you asked why, I'm coming from a Thunderbolt which was limited to a 4gb eMMC... which still fit all my stuff (barely). So 16 will be plenty on the internal side. Plus, coupled with the option of a 64gb external card brings the total to 80. While I do have some music and movies, I don't have tons and tons like some others have and I clear out my old nandroids. 80 is more than I'll ever use and is still more than you'll even find on the largest ipad/ipod touch for music and movies. I'd rather spend the $50 I saved on something else.

Ordered 32GB because I commute 1 hr each way for work and I need lots of music, podcasts and movies on my phone. I don't like streaming from the cloud because it sucks up battery over just playing stuff directly off the sdcard. Also, bought a 64GB sdcard from the Amazon deal yesterday.

I currently run a 32GB sdcard on my DX that has 16GB internal.

Went with the 32 gig version and have a 64 gig card on order. I put a lot of stuff on my devices and can't always rely on the cloud.

How much was the 64 sd card

I went with the 16gb. I was tempted to get the 32gb but honestly $50 for 16gb of data isn't worth it to me. I'll buy a 32gb sd card for less than $30 on newegg and be happy with 48gb of space.

Bought 32GB and have a 64GB card on order. It may be the last phone I get for a few years and I want as much space as possible.

This is my plan exactly. If you have to keep it for a couple of years, you might as well load up.

Since I got the 64gb card from BB for $50 I'll be ordering the 16GB phone most likely. I have to wait until the stores have the phone in stock since I'm switching carriers and porting my number over.

Remember if you buy the 16 it will re-sell for much less.

I don't think so. Kind of like upgrades on your car and such. Once you put it for sale on Craigslist people are just comparing price. And if they do care, they'll feel like many here do. That they'll just up the dc card

32GB + 64GB card (which I already have).

I won't use all of that since I'm mostly in the cloud with everything, but the company's buying (up to $300 worth), so I might as well max it out. That'll give me plenty of room for my music, movies, and as many offline Google maps as they're going to let me put on my phone.

And I shouldn't have to worry if I want to record a video of various activities my kid is in, like a school play or soccer game or something.
