As a partial response to your question about 1G product availability, SanDisk has indicated some time ago that its higher density products would be made in the new plant under construction (50% owned by Toshiba) in Manassas, Virginia. SNDK has also indicated that 1G capacity is feasible, but I suspect that an actual product will not be available in any quantities until early 2002. It takes time to work all the bugs out of a new factory and get blemish free product at sufficiently high efficiency rates to warrant marketing the product. Ultimately the high capacity flash cards should become the technology of choice for individuals interested in obtaining full length movies online. That spells not only profits for SNDK and Toshiba but is the beginning of the end for the corner video rental store.
