Mike and other Gorilla hunters, re: Launchpad We on the SanDisk Thread are encouraged by the inclusion of MMC and SDMC as the preferred removable storage medium for Launchpad. The fact that functionality within the CDMA chipset and associated system software will interface with SanDisk's high density flash memory solution is a strong endorsement of SanDisk's position within this market. The JV between SanDisk and Toshiba likely did not hurt either... Message 12892007 It is interesting that the Symbian Venture has also selected SanDisk as their removable memory solution in their WAP version of a cell phone/communicator named "Quartz"... www8.zdnet.com I think it is apparent that functionality such as compressed audio, compressed video and GPS/mapping/localization are added to consumer mobile telephony/computing devices the need for small form factor, high capacity flash memory will grow in step. Ausdauer *SanDisk...We Put the fun!* in functionality and the dig it! in digital!**
