My 4GB Transcend SD card supports FAT32. Did we really need a new non-compatible format to formalize the use of FAT32? I'm sure FAT32 was used and supported on less spacious SD cards by many devices before so FAT32-support not something new.
I highly doubt these new cards are anymore durable than the best of current SD cards. My ATP SD card is waterproof and uses SLC chips, which are better than the cheaper MLC chips.
The FAT32 spec can support up to at least 8TB. The only mention of a 32GB limit is that Windows 2000 and XP can only create FAT32 volumes up to 32GB, but otherwise support FAT32 volumes of any size. Solution is to use another utility to create large FAT32 volumes.
