RE: HiFD

>>> Fuji says "200MB HiFi drive be End of November." <<<

Rocky, I do not see the (above) quote you posted, in the link you referenced. The Fuji press release speaks of the expected availability of the Fuji made HiFD disks, but not the Sony drive. As far as I can tell, Sony has not confirmed that the drive will be shipping by the end of November. While one could assume that the drive might possibly be ready at the same time, there are others who believe that it is unlikely the drive will ship before the end of the year. Here's a recent article that discusses possible Sony HiFD drive ship dates:
