Art, I thought the global demand for SanDisk's products was a big positive.

Digital vs. Analog Photography

Even as recently as last Summer digital photography was not price competitive
in Europe. I am speaking specifically about Sweden. The cameras were very
pricey even if you factored out the apparent added expense in calculating in
$USD. (The dollar hit highs against the Swedish Crown last year). Yes, you
could buy some entry level cameras at a reasonable price, but, as you know,
the user experience is mixed at the 1.3 megapixel and below resolution range.

The dollar is down from a high of almost 11 Swedish crowns, to just over 9 crowns.
I suspect that electronics will be much less expensive this Summer in comparison
to last year. I will try to check it out when I am there next.

Worldwide you have to expect digital camera growth anywhere there is PC and web
access/availability. That is a huge potential market.
