I previously thought that an SD slot was very important to have.

But then I do not watch video on my devices. I mostly read books and listen to pod casts.

I think that most people do not use the SD card slot if available at all other then putting in the initial SD card. And for many people arguing about the need of an SD slot I believe it is a theorethical need (just like mine was) that does not exist in reality. Of course for some people it is a real need.
A 7" tablet is worthless at home, I have a PC that'll play my content. A tablet suddenly becomes valuable when I take trips. The problem is, I take trips where WiFi is non-existent. I don't stay in hotels, I stay in campgrounds. So how do I watch videos? I could watch them on my 4" Galaxy Player, but the screen is too small for full length movies; especially when two people are watching.

I use the mSD slot in my SGP all the time. I have separate cards for videos, music, audiobooks, and podcasts. Swapping cards is easier and faster than dealing with the internal storage of my device.
