SDXC signals new generation of removable memory with up to 2 terabytes of storage

I was going to get a 16GB media card for my new BlackBerry Curve 8900 (when I get it)…but I think I’ll wait for the SDXCs to come out.

Some highlights from the press release:

The next-generation SDXC (eXtended Capacity) memory card specification, announced today at the 2009 International CES, dramatically improves consumers’ digital lifestyles by providing the portable storage and speed needed to store weeks of high-definition video, years of photo collections and months of music to mobile phones, cameras and camcorders, and other consumer electronic devices.
The SDXC specification, developed by the SD Association, leapfrogs memory card interface speeds while retaining the world-leading SD interface.
A 2TB SDXC memory card can store 100 HD movies, 60 hours of HD recording or 17,000 fine-grade photos.
SDXC is also the first memory card specification to provide 2TB storage without hindering the high-speed performance necessary for high-end photography.

Check out the full press release after the jump.

T-Marco over at CellPhonesignal just posted a bunch of pictures of the BlackBerry Curve 8900 for T-Mobile, which he had a chance to play with at the 2009 CES.

From reading the review, T-Marco seemed pretty pleased with the Curve 8900.

Few days ago T-mobile and Blackbery announced the new Blackberry Curve 8900. Now, spending the last day at CES, we finally got the opportunity to play with the new @Home phone for T-mobile.
