Mobile companies pushing for standard memory card format

One card to rule them all - Image 1With a whole slew of memory card formats out there it’s good news to hear that three big mobile phone companies – Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson – are cooperating to push for a standard unified format. Their plan is to have one single format for mobile phones, digital cameras and other gadgetry that requires a memory card.

Memory card companies are also said to be on board, like Micron Technology Inc., Spansion LLC, STMicroelectronics NV, and Texas Instruments Inc. We might not see the “one card” take over the gadget kingdom in the near future, but with technology running on its current pace it won’t be surprising to see it take effect sooner than we expect.
