My post was not one to state that Microdrive was going to be any more or less important, or successful, than CompactFlash or SmartMedia. I was more curious about the pricing of these three ... I haven't been able to locate a good source which compares them ...

I, for one, do not believe in Silver Bullets ... I think this is going to be a very competitive space. I too have recently picked up watching SanDisk ...

I didn't mention but they were also at the MP3 Summit and had an impressive representation. Because of that I have started to do some DD on SanDisk ... ;-)

I am basing my questions and speculation on the presentations of several vendors at the show ... if you would like specific links and more detail so that this is not just "personal recollections" I can get them to you ...
