SEOUL -- South Korea's Samsung Electronics said Wednesday it had developed the world's largest storage-capacity memory card for mobile phones.

The eight-gigabyte memory card, microSD, can store some 2,000 MP3 music files, 4,000 photographs or five DVD-quality movie files, the company said in a statement.

It is only a quarter the size of the widely-used and existing SD card but much faster in downloading and uploading multimedia data, it added.

SD cards are largely used for data storage in digital cameras and televisions. Samsung, quoting market researcher Gartner Dataquest, said the global multimedia memory card market would grow 10 percent annually until 2010.

i agree with chanbri.. the highest capacity of the latest phone models 2gb lang.. its going to take a while for a phone unit or even a camera to be able to use such memory capacity.
