John Stichnoth and Thread,

I am still waiting for the Secure Digital Memory Card website to open up. There is a very small mention of the card and a second photograph of the device (first photograph I saw recently was in the October 18, 1999 edition of Forbes Magazine on page 156) in the current issue of Digital Camera Magazine (page 12)...

SanDisk announced their Secure Digital Memory Card standard, developed in partnership with Panasonic and Toshiba. The new card is based on SanDisk's MultiMediaCard, only with nine pins instead of seven. When released to the public in the second quarter of 2000, the first size will be 32MB, with 64MB expected to be released soon after. By 2001, it is believed cpacities of 256MB will be possible in the same 24mm x 32mm x 2.1mm package.

Data transfer rates will start at 2MB per second, with expected future potential of 10MB per second.

As the name emphasizes, Secure Digital will conform to the SDMI (Secure Digital Music Initiative) standard for security and copy protection. The cards are designed for storing photographs, movies, data and music.
