Steve, I just re-posted this link yesterday.
Delkin...

The search button is a great tool for locating old links.
If you search within a given subject you usually get a
fairly concentrated list of older, relevant links.
I lump Delkin together with Lexar, Simple Technologies, Viking, PNY,... They are essentially value added resellers of Hitachi high-density flash and Hitachi controllers. I have seen Delkin advertised in several digital photography and handheld PC magazines, but have only seen it for sale at National Camera and Video who I consider to be greatly overpriced. SanDisk's retail channel does not include National Camera and Video. I suspect they may be spread to thin. The important accounts like BestBuy, Computer City, Target, Sears, Office Max, Ritz Camera, Wolf Camera, (I am sure I missed a few others)... were probably selected as "elite" retailing opportunities.
Right now SanDisk doesn't have the capacity to be everything to everybody.
The take home message is worry about Hitachi, not Delkin.
