    I'm a G1S owner and I love it. I am just wondering if anyone knows if it will be worth it to get a 2GB SD card for using Windows ReadyBoost? I'm not sure since it already has 2GB ram so I'm not sure if it will be worth it or not, anyone tried it?

    From personal experience - no you won't see any difference whatsoever (2GB SD card on a 2GB machine). It makes the most dramatic difference in PCs with 512MB to 1GB RAM.

    FWIW, 4GB SDHC cards work fine on the G1S.

    Secure Digital High Capacity. Extra memory used by Ready Boost feature in Vista, not onboard system ram. You can google that if you need further info :).
