I am not sure your statement came out right though...did you mean reasonable or unreasonable? I meant reasonable, and I would answer my question (using the word "reasonable") with a resounding "Yes". If I had used the word "unreasonable", then I would answer my question with a "No" reply. Afterall, the brunt of storage archival needs for PDA's/cameras/ etc. is typically already on the network...on a hard-drive. The on-board solid-state memory, though not necessarily remaining fully embedded (at least not in the present time frame)...acts as a temporary cache. I think most would agree that only a small minority of people currently use solid-state memory for archival purposes. By the way Eric, what are your thoughts regarding my contention (posted in Reply #12976, siliconinvestor.com that a technology SSTI refers to as "Breakthrough" is apparently based on a concept that was, at a minimum, invented by Dr. Boaz Eitan 14 years ago.
