OH, I said I was going to stay away from this thread for a month, but one last post:

YOU DON'T NEED TO BUY MORE THAN ONE FLASH CARD!!!!!

The point is transportation, not storage

You take the pictures.
You remove the flash card.
You pop the PCMCIA flash card into almost any notebook computer
sold in the last 2 years, or any other PCMCIA compatible device.
You download the photos.
You put the flash card back in the camera.

For convenience, you can buy two flash cards.
Since PCMCIA is a standard and already in millions of devices, you
don't need to buy a drive.

Oh, and btw, all digital cameras need flash memory in them anyway to store the pictures. So the Clik! doesn't remove the need for the flash memory, just reduces the requirements.

PCMCIA= standard = no extra drive = no moving parts.
