If Sony can execute this... That's a mighty big If. What happened to Sony's Memory 'crap-on-a-stick' ? Have they given up on that too ? I guess they can cannibalize their own businesses as well.

>>If Sony decides to enable MP3 file transfer directly to their Minidisc players via USB, watch out! Sony's Minidisc could come out of nowhere to take the MP3 world by storm!<< Elmer - Riiiight. Minidisc wouldn't face the same problems Clik! has of being mechanical, requiring more power than flash, or just being too damn big, physically. It's WAY bigger than Smartmedia, WAY bigger than CompactFlash, and more than twice the size of Clik!, but I suppose that in your mind, since Iomega doesn't make it, customers won't mind that. And never mind whoever that guy was who said "Compact Flash is the standard." What did he know? That's the kind of consistency of logic that makes me admire you so much, Elmer FUD. You are truly hilarious. I've decided that you are actually an animated character. That's what enables you to have the power of "stretchy logic", which allows you to think things no real person ever could. - Allen
