>>This "smart media" was smaller than a matchbook cover and fit into a pcmcia card to download data. The Caddy to be released supposedly in november fits into the typical 3 1/2 1.44mb floppy drive." David - This caddy idea sounds very far-fetched to me. I cannot imagine how that would work. Of course, that doesn't mean it's impossible. But it really doesn't make any sense. Flash RAM solid state devices being read by a mechanical device? The other question I have is how 20 or more "high resolution" images can fit onto a 2 MB card. The math simply doesn't work out, unless there is some sort of seriously wicked compression at work. I would love to see some sort of technical data on these devices. Meanwhile, I'm glad I was working so hard the last couple of days that I didn't have time to check the market. Who needs the agita? - Allen
