And so it seems I was wrong about the year having a bad start for me due to my supposedly "can't-detect-memory-cards" cellphone. Went to Samsung service outlet at CWP today and discovered my precious is perfectly fine! The problem as I had initially thought, lies with the
unworthy-of-my-Samsungie memory card! [Samsungie {pronounced as Samsung-ee} is the new name of my Samsung F330. I just love it so much!]
So problem solved with a new 1Gb memory card. :)
P.S. Now I can show of the gorgeous ice-white phone to you! LOL.
