How long until Chinese device makers just abandon SD cards en masse and form a new standard? Unlike, say, x86 or Windows, the capabilities of SD are not hard to replicate.
Ebay is filled with ultra cheap high capacity sd cards that are either fake or quality control rejects. These are still using the SD card branding though. It would be nice to see a high quality retailer of "SD cards" selling them under some generic name and then with the text "SD compatible"

I wonder if they could simply fork SD cards and make something compatible but without the branding or proprietary parts.
I wonder how many "counterfeit" SD cards are on the market already, especially in places like china?
