>>But seriously, HiFD does look like a good, or even great product, although it is very late to market. It does stand a good chance of becoming the next standard, if pricing is right. And if anyone can miniaturize the thing to the point where it can be installed internally in notebooks, Sony can.<< A very fair statement. I might buy a Sony HiFi drive, I might not. I use the crap out of my CD-RW drives, and have little need for magnetic storage. One thing however, If/when Sony comes out with their 200MB HiFi Mavica Digital Camera - I'm there. That is a product that can potentially blow the doors off the digital camera market. The Mavica is already the best selling digital camera, I believe. With 200MB HiFi discs costing about $10 apiece combined with the Sony brand name and marketing muscle, that product would be just about impossible to beat.
