Update?

All you need to do is take off the back, pull out the old card, and plug in the new one.

If you want to keep the contents of the old card, just drag the contents to your PC first, then swap the card, and copy the contents back.

Now that the mini has been updated to 2.1, are 32 Gig cards supported?

Some initial information was added to http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki..._MicroSD_Cards

You should turn off the phone OR unmount the SDCard before remove it.

Seems like you will have to go shopping again. At least for the X10 the 16Gig limit is replaced with a 32Gig limit. At least if I can believe this page:
h t t p : //gadgets.apnafundaz.com/20 10/09/xperia-x10-whi tepaper-revision-6-for-andr oid-2-1-eclair-no-16m-color-adobe-flash-mu lti-touch-and-more/

Though the link is a bit old. So I was hoping that maybe somebody here had already tried this. As I would rather spend my money on a 32 Gig card then buy a 16 Gig card and hear that I could have got double that.. ;)

Didn't you guys get the fancy card reader with your E10s/U20s?

I bought my E10i on the launching day and in the box was that USB MicroSD-card reader.

Using it is easy to put your contents of your old MicroSD to a folder on your computer. Either temporary (to move it to the new mSD) or as back-up.

Don't remember it's SE name (have mislayed it as I used the reader and 2GB card that came with X10Mini, for installing Ubuntu on a EeePC 701)
