Dataquest projections:

Mike, thanks for another great link. I love this part...

To understand the prodigious growth digital photography could spark, consider the projected market growth for the miniature memory cards such as the ones SanDisk and rivals Toshiba and Intel make and sell. Dataquest says about 229,000 of those cards will be sold this year. But then the business takes off: 4.91 million in 1998, 11.6 million in 1999 and 17.9 million in 2000.

Let me see... SanDisk already shipped 350,000 cards in 3Q97 alone. So Dataquest is off by a factor of 3 already for 1997 sales. But I have to agree more closely with their 98 and 99 numbers.

In any case, we should see SNDK ship over 1M cards in one of the quarters in 1998.
