>>think it would make a fine addition to a palmtop computer with a built in Clik! drive.<<

I think it's already been established that data and software distribution for portable devices will be on OROM, and storage is already Flash. Microsoft seems to think so, as they alredy have the drivers for OROM in Windows CE.

For instance, a GPS navigator could have an entire country in map form on one $2 OROM card. And not worry about draining batteries or ruggedness. OROM features both energy-savings, and ruggedness needed for such a device. Vapor!'s fragility is like a mere toy in comparison to OROM and Flash.
