It would be convenient to have removable media for phones with some ridiculously simple way of connecting to the phone – like a magnetic latch. Even an external SD port would be a savior! It’s unclear why almost all phones have SD card connectors buried somewhere inconvenient.
I understand it’s old-fashioned and all, but buying video courses, HD movies, high-graphic games, and other heavy content at a supermarket, and carrying them scattered in a wallet is more convenient than downloading through iTunes or USB transfer to the phone or built-in card.
By the way, if you load multimedia content onto an SD card, Android starts lagging terribly because it tries to organize it in the Gallery, in videos, creating thumbnails in the background, scanning the file system.
And how handy it would be to buy a series on something like a flash drive, and connect it temporarily to watch. Or a few games. Or a flash drive with a navigator. Or dictionaries. Or to transfer something heavy from the phone to a friend.
Update: partially solved by micro-USB flash drives. I’ll buy one today; turns out, they are not rare.
