Craig,
<<What the makers of removable storage devices really need to be able to do, he said, 'is to have something very small, with lots of memory, that is so cheap that you could almost throw it away.'>>
I was thinking along the same lines. Make the 512mb and 1 gig flash chips, sure, but if it is possible to make a slew of, say, 128s very, very cheaply instead of the higher density chips, it might be worth Sandisk's while to devote a lot of capacity to that. But I'm not sure how the economics of that works out, if they could make 128s or 256s that much more cheaply than the higher density chips.
