Windows Phone 7 certified microSD cards emerge at AT&T stores: $32 for 8GB

Well, well — what have we here? For avid users of Windows Phone 7 , you undoubtedly remember the hubbub last year surrounding the so-called difficulties with Microsoft’s latest and greatest mobile OS accepting microSD cards. We’d been pounded with news of “WP7 certified microSD cards,” but even now, they’re more ghost than reality. That said, it looks like the tables are turning, with an nondescript AT&T store grabbing fresh stock of “certified” 8GB Class 4 microSDHC cards. According to the packaging, it’s fairly clear that Microsoft’s taking the lead here, but SanDisk has been knighted to produce the hardware. $32 will soon get you a card that doesn’t destroy itself upon insertion on your Samsung Focus, and we’re guessing that they’ll be available to buy sooner instead of later. So, you sizing up, or what?
