Crippled phones
Time to break out the tinfoil hat again. I believe the move toward phones without microSD storage such as the Samsung Nexus S is to push us to store and access all our files on the cloud. This works for the phone manufacturers and the providers, who have eliminated unlimited data and switched to tiered. Now if we have to always use the cloud, we will incur data charges and drain our batteries, which can no longer be removed, thus driving us to purchase new phone after new phone.
There is definitely a conspiracy between the manufacturers and telecoms to drain us every dollar in our wallets.
