The SD Association was on hand tonight at CES Unveiled, to celebrate the tenth anniversary of its existence. The association, a joint venture of Panasonic, SanDisk, and Toshiba, didnt actually showcase any new products, but it did give a rough estimate for the debut of the latest generation of SD cards–the SDXC.

First outlined at last years show, the new cards are the same size as standard SD cards and will be able to hold a whopping 64GB to 2TB. The low end of the spectrum is double the maximum capacity of todays biggest SDHC cards.
A spokesperson for the association said that she expected the cards to begin appearing early this year. The first models will be in the lower capacities but are still 8,000 times the capacity of the first cards introduced a decade ago.
