VZW are apparently trying to push more sales by offering a 32gb microsd for $100, if you get the X.

This seems odd for four reasons:

1. Device is highly anticipated already for launch
2. Already has a 16gb installed
3. Microsd is stuck behind the battery, so not like there will be too much card swapping going on.
4. 32gb microsd card supply is very constrained right now. How is Sandisk going to cover demand if one third of X buyers decide to get the 32gb deal? There is no stock ATM unless a few strays are sitting around somewhere.

Looks like Incredibles will have more of a chance of being back in steady supply before 32gb microsd's will be. They sold out at $200- imagine what demand will be at $150 and then $100 for X-people.

Just checked again- 32gb microsd cards are hard to get ATM unless through back-order.
