I have 512Mb MultimediaCard (MMC) in my mobile phone. The phone also keeps its 
address books and MP3 files there. This card has 1.5MB/sec data transfer rate, 
and this is not done by hardware. In my digital photo camera, there is a 
CompactFlash memory card of 256M capacity, it has 2.4MB/sec transfer rate and 
Private Disk also helps it alot!

I do store valuable information to my MMC card, but I do frequent backups. I 
have a Private Disk partition with The Bat! installed there, and this is my 
mobile mail client.
