At the press announcement on the 23rd, we were told that the G1 would come included with a 1GB MicroSD memory card and 256 flash memory. Needless to say we were all a little disappointed to hear that 8GB was the highest available size for the current software. However, there is good news! Our friends at AndroidCommunity got their hands on some nice info from a  “Google spokesman.”

“We have completed tests, and the new SanDisk 16GB card will run on the current version of Android.  No new firmware required.” -Google Spokesperson

In the past, AndroidCommunity has brought us extremely accurate Android news and with the excitement of the G1, we couldn’t be happier with the guys over there for drumming this up! Stay tuned for more exciting news!
