Wonderful things are happening!

The Yahoo! Thread degenerated so badly that a SNDK long started his own message board. It is this type of investor that we need for the long haul.

Here is my last post there...

Pontis MP3 absolutely rocks!

They even beat SanDisk to the punch with this product.
I consider it a lost opportunity for advertising "out-of-the-box".
Also look as the very hip logo that Pontis has on its MMC's...

It has to make you wonder, when is SanDisk marketing going to come up with some creative ideas? Maybe they'll just let their OEM's come up with all the good ideas and then we'll be left scratching our headas to why the SanDisk logo is relegated to the "b-side"*** of every card that leaves the factory for bundling.

IT'S REALLY NOT FUNNY ANYMORE.

Is SanDisk making any money on MMC card readers???

pontis.de

My I-Jam came with a parallel port reader from SCM Microsystems.
No reference to SanDisk or MMC at all on the product.

Just another lost opportunity it seems.
