I don't know all the specifics, but the apps will most likely stay on the internal storage (will that amount of storage devoted to apps increase?) because of the way Android is set up. In the future Google has promised apps to SD. Many apps store data in folders, on a phone the folders go to your SD card. This fix will accomplish that. I do have questions as well though. What is the optimum class SDHC to use for the best read/write speeds. How fast is the edge internal memory compared to a class 6, which is what I have, SDHC? When they say irreversible do they mean unless you master reset? Will the 3rd party app that are installed "find" the new path to their data? Or will they need to be reinstalled? And finally, will the space allotted to apps increase?
