>> Sales of flash-memory chips, which retain information in devices when the power is off, will rise to about $15 billion in 2002, from about $8 billion this year, according to Dataquest. Even so, analysts say chipmakers can't add capacity fast enough to meet demand from cell-phone companies and digital camera makers.

Interesting. I had a conversation with a semiconductor industry insider this week, and he assured me flash memory will remain in a capacity limited mode for 12 to 18 months. Given that, it's astonishing that a very profitable and established niche player like sndk has fallen 71% off its high of 169 5/8 set on 3/9/00. I don't believe that sndk is a Gorilla or and King, but it sure looks like a bargain right now.

Sorry if I pre-empted you, Ausdauer <gg>.
