I'm not sure what you mean by a very long time. We have 1tb microsdxc now and it is about 1000 times the capacity of sdcards available in 2005.

What's more ... although it would be ugly and awkward, one can easily imagine that 50 micro sd cards could easily be mounted on a single USB like device that sits in your pocket and attaches to a phone. The reason it doesn't exist is primarily nobody needs it rather than "it can't be done".
