Compatibility means nothing without a design-in. Let's hope the relationship between EDIG and IBM VoiceTIMES will results in some design-ins. (I'm speaking about the Microdrive. I know EDIG is designed into one CF devices already.) Bob, I stopped at the newsstand to read the small article in Popular Science that mentioned e.Digital and "that company's MicroOS file management system." I almost missed it (it was so small),but the picture of the LYRA caught my eye. I see what you mean: it was good to see e.Digital on that glossy page.

Really now, what could EDIG possibly gain from a deal with Sony? “Sony, for one, has said it is working on a line of portable devices using its so-called ''memory stick'' technology that saves data like music files on a special storage device that looks like a stick of gum.” ''Sony's stick Walkman is not going to come out in dribs and drabs ... it's going to go out in big boxes to Wal-Mart and they're going to promote it heavily,'' Hardie said. dailynews.yahoo.com. "Sony Electronics... to sell its consumer electronics directly to customers through the Web" "Sony's not in a situation like Compaq, reacting to everyone--what Sony can do is be the leader." “a Sony e-commerce site could easily leverage the company's successful movie studio and music label, the ultra-popular PlayStation gaming device, the cutting-edge Vaio notebooks, and Sony's well-known and well-regarded television and audio devices.” news.com EDIG's PR department's “no comment” statement on EDIG and Sony working together: Message 10134454 If EDIG announces that MicroOS is now compatible with Memory Stick then we might have a clue.:-) JMHO
