Michael -

Could we please ask what developments there are for the music industry. By that I mean a small mobile "Walkman" type device capable of replaying and recording.

With suitable compression it sould be possible to hold a complete CD in an 84Mb CF module and such devices have the huge advantage that it may be possible to prevent unauthorised copying (to the same media) much more easily that with simple tape or CDs.

In addition announcement of SNDK's CF products in this area will bring instant world wide recognition to the most important segment of the worlds buying population i.e. the young people and the kids.

Apart from the benefit of a totally shock proof sound replay and recording system which might in a couple of years be cpable of recording video as well - yes a lot more capacity required but with the speed of development... OK its a maybe but.....
