Phone Internal Memory vs. SD Card Storage

[Hivoltage]

I am confused how the 2 storages work....the internal and the SD card I just installed. I just downloaded all my pictures and they went to phone storage....so did my music I think. Is that OK, does it even matter? How does this work? Thanks

From what I've seen so far, music at least seems to find itself on the music player. I added the files to a microSD card and as soon as I opened the music player app, it found them automatically. I'll check the pics also. The music player looks and runs great. I really like it. Very similar to iTunes to me.

Well, that's the question. The reason a 2gb microSD card was "at the last minute" included was some apps were not functioning correctly without it. Most apps in the market that require access the the sd card couln't see the internal storage of the incredible and wouldn't work. The app developers just need to update their apps to also look in internal storage. If you read some of the reviews of the incredible before it launched, i think i read it on engadget, they found some apps didn't work. One I remember was something to do with a NY subway app that stored the map for the subway on the SD card. Without a card in the phone, the app wouldn't work cause it couldn't find anywhere to store it. The incredible wasn't originally going to come with an SD card and was added at the last minute. I'm curious if you move all your music over to the internal storage would an after market app would even see it like btunes or other apps.

Another one missing is FiOS Mobile. For some reason it doesnt show up on the Incredible.
