STAMP-SIZED MEMORY CARD

Morishita, the most senior manager of the group after chairman Masaharu Matushita, said the company was well- positioned
for the pending changes. Matsushita could provide terminal devices from communications equipment to household appliances,
central systems, including communications bases, broadcast stations and traffic management systems and also the software
and other key devices and parts. A number of prototype products would be displayed at Telecom 99, which will be
openedofficially on Saturday.

Matushita is developing a stamp-sized SD memory card with Toshiba Corp and Sandisk Corp (NasdaqNM:SNDK - news),
``that we expect to become the next generation of media following tape and disk.'

Morishita said such a memory card would allow a mobile phone to receive moving images.

All,

CF retail prices are still going up. Seems that the 96MB CF is impossible to find now in toronto. Even the 30MB which used to be C$160 (about $100) is now selling at over C$200 ($130), about 30% more.

This shortage is probably a lot more severe than most people realize.

If SNDK could make more 96MB's, I bet there's a bottomless market for them at this point.
