I've read that internal mem is only 512mb and you need the SD cards to extra space. I am guessing w/o a contract mid $500 with contract I believe I saw somewhere say $189.

I've read that internal mem is only 512mb and you need the SD cards to extra space.

The ROM is 512MB, and 288MB is available as RAM. That may not sound like much but these aren't PCs remember; everything is highly optimised for efficiency. Even Google Maps only occupies 2.8MB.

The expandable memory (micro SDHC) is only normally available for storage of user data e.g. music, video, data files etc.
