>>You neglected to mention anything about laptops.<<

Oh, please. When is the last time you saw anyone treating a laptop computer like a camera? Every laptop I've ever seen is sitting on a desk or other solid surface while in use. It's not being run with, or sitting next to the pool.

>>Error correction can also be built into Vapor! drives as well. Detecting bad sectors and checksums are all possible solutions.<<

And there goes any speed it might have had. This device that is already much slower than Flash Cards will become at least twice as slow. This "convenient" Vapor! solution becomes a hassle rather quickly.
