Rex, You had asked about pricing of the digital cameras from the table I produced previously. There are so many feature options avaiable that it is hard to break down the pricing as attributable to the type of storage technology however I can provide the following table of memory prices that I have compiled: Size SmartMedia CompactFlash ATA $ $ $ 2MB 99.00h 4MB 49.95t 55.00k1, 72.95n, 89.95s, 60.00p, 72.95n, 99.00m 99.00m, 109.00m, 149.00h 79.00k 5MB N.A. 249.00r 8MB N.A. 99.95n, 110.00k1, 129.95s, 82.00p, 99.95n, 139.00m 139.00m, 149.00m 10MB N.A. 149.95s, 179.00k, 299.00h 349.00r 12MB N.A. 129.95n 129.95n, 135.00p, 179.00m 15MB N.A. 179.95s, 229.00m 16MB N.A. 155.00k1, 169.95n 169.95n, 219.00m 20MB N.A. 339.00m 185.00p, 199.95n, 259.00m, 599.00r 24MB N.A. 235.00k1, 269.95n 429.00m 30MB 479.00m 32MB N.A. 295.00k1, 349.95n 235.00p, 329.95n 40MB N.A. N.A. 295.00p, 399.95n, 439.00m 64MB 445.00p, 599.00m 80MB I think the table kind of says it all! Here are some links to some vendors/manufacturers pages: k - Kodak Compact Flash Cards webs.kodak.com k1 - Kingston Compact Flash Cards kingston.com k2 - Kingmax ATA Flash Cards kingmax.com k2 - Kingmax CompactFlash Cards kingmax.com k2 - Kingmax SmartMedia Cards kingmax.com m - Magicram Cards magicram.com n - noname, from a mail order catalogue - no manufacturers name given p - Pretec ATA Flash Cards pretec.com p - Pretec Compact Flash Cards pretec.com r - Ricoh - web site was not available when I was compiling the list s - Sandisk Compact Flash Cards sandisk.com t - Toshiba SmartMedia Specs toshiba.com t - Toshiba SmartMedia Cards toshiba.com Some notes: 1) Magicram has both 3.3V and 5V CF cards in 4 and 8MB sizes - 3.3V is more expensive. 2) The CF - pcmcia adaptor costs ~$20 and is included in the cost of the Sandisk cards but not most of the others (some were none specific) 3) Pricing for the SmartMedia cards is much less available and I only found one price for the Smart Media - pcmcia adaptor - a whopping $99.00 (PC Connection mail order catalogue). I did not find a price (or technical details) of the mythical floppy adaptor for this technology. 4) Toshiba has specs for the 8MB SmartMedia card but I could not find a price for one. Gary
