Madness!? THIS...IS...oh, wait. lol. Actually, yes, I agree that they are crazy high priced. But that's to be expected of new products. The early adopters typically pay for the R&D, and the people who wait merely pay for the manufacturing, as it takes them a few months to get the bugs out and speed up the process in order to reduce costs. Like I usually say, wait at least a year and get it at a steep discount.

Class 2 is fine for media, files for game emulators and the type of video recording you can do on the N900. The problems would be if you ran apps from the memory, but I do not think that is an issue anyways.

Price still steep, so will wait until late summer when more competition and production drops the price.

Lord Raiden, yes- starting points of cost curves are a beeeuch! ;)

Just stay away from 32gb cards other than Sandisk sellers. A seller was pushing Kingston's on eBay, but they are apparently 4 & 8 gb cards addressed to show 30gb of space, but they show full after MUCH less than that.

Makes sense, since Kingston has not started production yet.

Er, Kingston doesn't produce anything themselves. They re-brand cards made by the 3 or 4 real vendors, just like almost every other seller. Sandisk, Toshiba, Panasonic, and, apparently, Micron, make cards. The rest re-brand.

My big issue is VM; I'm swapping exclusively to my class-6 SD, and it's massively fast.
