ralessipvh: >>I read that Sanyo is due out thisfall w/ an optical-magnetic storage for cameras that hold up to 5X the flash chips---they feel this will crush the flash market<< They fail to mention the drive needed to access the disk. How big is this optical disk drive? How much power does it use? How much $$$ does the drive cost? The cost has to be added into the price of the camera, resulting in a camera that is priced out of its range for its set of features...just look at the Agfa/Iomega CL30 Clik drive camera to see what I mean. This disk drive camera has been a failure. The only disk drive cameras to have success have been the floppy-Mavicas- succesful only because they use the universal floppy disk.
