JimC, You are right. It's main benefit is storage capacity. Last I heard, flash costs roughly $1.00/Meg. There doesn't seem to be much competition price wise. Regards, Kerry

Email and other transmissions will be listened to from text to voice, and answers transmitted from voice to text. The hard part, text to voice is a done deal. The easier part, voice to text is currently being worked on by IBM in conjunction with the Micro OS.

JimC1997..the entire hard drive is removable/swappable. One would swap it out like a hot swappable PCMCIA card. You could carry a pocketful of them for mass storage. ================================================================ "IBM microdrive fits into the industry-standard CF+ Type II slot that has become increasingly popular in the digital, hand-held devices markets. Microdrive also can be used in a PC Card Type II slot, using a PC Card adaptor" Best, Savant
