TW - It is noteworthy that Kodak has been looking into a digital camera with a wireless connection that would allow the user to send the photo image by wireless to a remote host for storage, email, prints, etc. Of course, this would reduce the need for high capacity CF and allow Kodak to use some lower cost, low capacity embedded memory instead. Your point that the lack of Bluetooth could only help SNDK is well taken. There is really no substitute for a rugged, non-volatile, removable storage device. I'm not convinced that either Bluetooth or the standard used by Apple in its AirPort wireless device is the best solution. It seems to me that an effective wireless connection must be at least as fast as Ethernet and must cover an area (indoors as well as outdoors) of at least 200 yards to a central antenna. Art
