You must have missed my posts about Sony as a potential customer of EDIG. Surely, you remember the post about Wendy's no comment comment on possible business relations with Sony.

<<Toshiba already has a 128 MB array>>

Tell me, what do you think is the minimal amount of memory that a customer would expect to get when they buy their new portable digital player?

When EDIG/LU/SNDK made their announcement they planned to include a 32MB Compact Flash disk even though they had a CF disk with a 96MB capacity.

At that time Sony was still working toward a 16MB Memory Stick. Now, they are at 64MB. I believe they are ready to compete for the portable digital music customer's dollar. Now, they have the name and the capacity. All they need now is a marketing campaign.

It couldn't hurt to add MicroOS for a touch of differentiation.

I wonder why none of those Internet Reporters have cut and pasted that Sony news release and shared the news with everybody in the USA.
