Aus: "out of the closet", that's a new way to put it. I would have told you no matter what. SNDK is probably a sensible long-term position, just like BRCM or CSCO. Going short in my mind has nothing to do with the company at this point, just a pricing issue.

By the way, there may be some new technologies that will compete with flash:

mhtx.com

These folks have holographic storage patents and technology in the portfolio. Probably wise to keep in mind.

Good trading, Keith

"The company designs the flash-memory chips, which then are
manufactured by companies including Motorola Inc. and Matsushita
Electric Industrial Company Ltd. The chips are shipped back to
SanDisk's headquarters to be assembled in the memory cards.

Intel Corp., the world's largest chipmaker, Toshiba, Japan's
No. 2 chipmaker, Samsung Electronics and others pay royalties to
SanDisk to license its technology, said Brandon Talaich, SanDisk
spokesman. About a quarter of 1998 revenue came from licenses and
royalties"
