For music? If so get a ipod then a normal smart phone. I cant think of any off the top of my head with that size even the new iphone arnt Ra Ra Rasputin lover of the Russian Queen, Ra Ra Ra Rasputin Russia's greatest love machine (Allegedly)

If it happens to be that you need that space for music.

I've used the iphone for years now. I like only having one thing to carry around and having the handsfree already in my ears whilst listening to music. Thats really why I want the 64gb as I need space for the music.

Quality hasnt been an issue, thats fine, its just an absolute pain in the @rse with regards to syncing / updating etc..

Get a standard 8 or 16GB phone and whack a 64GB microSD card in, you'll have 72/80GB then... -http://www.amazon.co.uk/S...=1328819751&sr=8-3

Yea I've been looking into this, but been reading that they need to be formatted with the phone etc.. and normal micro SD cards wont work??

This article seems somewhat contradictory, stating that they'll work, but once formatted wont work with anything else, but it then says that the cards have to meet minimum specs, but says that the specs are unavailable

Received loud n clear.

Don't get me wrong I love itunes and the iphone set up. It just f*cks me off.

I've even resorted to having a VM computer running itunes and absolutely nothing else to try to isolate any issues and I still have problems syncing and updating. Have been through a number of handsets as well, so its not a hardware issue. I just think they're a bit sh!t

OK, so you'd have to delete and download albums as you still only have the same amount of space but ALL of your music goes wherever you go.

Not with Android. Just pop it in, format, then put your **** tons of music on lol. WP7 are weird with SD cards, that's their own issue.

Or should I just buckle and buy a Mac

I'm assuming most the issues I have are "PC" related!!

Eh? How would a mac help you have 64GB of music on a phone?

The issue is nothing to do with PCs. You need a phone with expandable storage that's all.
