We're talking a philosophical difference here.

Are you a "just-in-timer" or a "inventory" type of person?

One is not better than another.

Personally, I'm an "inventory" type. I demand external storage (a SD chip or other external device) in my computers. All of them. It's make-or-break to me. And make no mistake about it, all your mobile devices are computers.

You see, in this day and age, I consider the device to be the throwaway, not the data. I prefer to be able to transfer the most valuable part (the data) with the least fuss and bother. It gets no simpler that popping out a chip from one device and plugging it into another. 5 seconds and I'm back in business.

Ideally, I'd like to have all my data on one chip, and put a copy of the data on every device, whether or not it is capable of using it! Data protection by data redundancy, with no worries about which data is on which chip. (Plus on site and off-site back-ups. But then again I've been a computer programmer for 35 years...)

<Shrug> Everybody makes their own choices...
