I think it's just supported with 8.  But you can always buy 2.

alls that would be needed would be a simple firmware update.  I am sure that for right now they went with the 8gb due to that is what is available right now.  Once the 16gb comes out, I am pretty sure we will see an OTAU come over that will enable us to use the 16gb

Yes the samsung supports up to 32GB card when it comes out to the market, so it will definetly support the 16GB.
  And I found this website that has alot of Instinct Accesories.

      WWW.Jballer.com

 And then on the left there will be a tab for accesories.

yeah, it just advertises 8gb because that is whats on the market.  my old a920 said it supported up to 512 MB and yet I had a 2gig card in there no problem...like someone said, its a firmware update not hardware.  I don't doubt its expandable to 32GB, but when that 32 gig cards comes out no one knows.  WHEN it does though, we can all laugh in iPhone's face, they are limited to their onboard storage while we have 32GB at our disposal that we can always have another 32GB for a total of 64gigs Cheesy.  that is bigger than both my current HDD combined on my computers.

I heard the 32GB wont be coming out anytime soon, but i heard somewhere that the 16GB card is already out in europe, so if you can find a forean store online they might have it on there.

16gb full SD card is already out in europe and i think US, the micro hasn't been released as far as I have seen.

the 32gb should be out within the next year, most people are predicting 1Q 2009, but some are saying 2 or 3rd quarter.

Heck, 200gb is small by today's syandards. I have 2x500gb running the OS and another 2x750gb for storage, now that's alot of giggies! You can buy 500gb for $70 now.

I like internals personally.  going to pick up a 320gb internal soon enough, have the 2 40's as back up for the most important files (family pictures/videos).  you sound like my brother, he also has 2 terabytes worth of storage which is just ridiculous...
