bigger memory cards slowing the phone?

hello, this might be a totaly stupid question but i had to ask.. if i put a very large memory card on a 6600, (256/512MB) and fill it up with junk etc, will it affect the speed of the mobile on menus etc?

I don't think it would effect your phone memory, but i've heard that the big cards are slow at retreving data, so if you were accessing an image from a 512mb card it might take longer than from other cards or from your phone memory. Also check the tested mmc cards thread here. And if you do get the 512mb card, post on there if it works or not.
