Clik is a non-volatile media. It means that it doesn't require power to maintains the data on media.

Gee, did I say something to imply that Clik! was volatile media which required power to maintain the data?

>>For now, I still like flash card over clik because flash mechanism is more durable than Clik. At last it has no moving part.<<

But is Clik! durable enough? This remains to be answered, and I think the answer will be yes.

Let's say a good test for durability is a drop test, and you're looking at digital cameras. If you drop a camera with flash the flash won't break--something else will. If you drop a camera with Clik!, it could be that the same piece that breaks in the flash camera breaks in the Clik! camera. If so, Clik! is durable enough using that test. I expect that Clik! will be durable enough that it will not significantly degrade the durability of an entire product.
