[maemo-users] Installing Mer

[From: William Dowden]

Now I see someone who has upped the ante for an N800 to 32GB internal memory
card.    I continue to see utility for the N800 so long as its capabilities
can continue to grow!  For example, I have "only" two 8GB cards in my N800,
with an extra 8GB on the side to use in my Nikon Coolpix 11 and to swap into
my Nokia when I want to upload the photos to Google or something.    It
seems to me that the N800 can be useful for a long time to come as the
storage disks get larger, faster, and cheaper.
