>>Allen, the SmartMedia capacity is actually quite sufficient, but the cost can be viewed as high when something else finally gets on the market. The Sony Mavica puts between 20 and 40 pictures on a 1.44 floppy by using hi/lo JPEG algorithms. Sony claims a 640x480 resolution.<<

Bill -

As the rest of your post illustrates, a 2MB storage device may be adequate for high resolution pictures, but that depends on your definition of high resolution. To me, 72 dpi is not it, no matter what size of image you're talking about.

Thanks for the cogent explanation of the image size issue.
