Let Me Be Frank About Windows Phone 7 Storage Cards

Of the features that Windows Phone 7 will not have, to me the lack of storage card support is the most disappointing. I am probably saying this mostly for philosophical reasons. Back in 1996 when I was choosing between Windows CE Handhelds and the Palm Pilot as the replacement for my Apple Newton Messagepad, I picked Windows CE for the expandability Handheld PCs had because it supported storage cards. In fact, some of the handhelds supported both PC cards and CompactFlash cards.
