Re aftermarket demand

IMHO Ausdauer you are right on the button. Every camera for example comes with a CF card that is nowhere near big enough. So every digital camera equals at least 2 CF card sales, one of which will probably be 20Mb or larger. (Usually just a 4 or 8Mb card with the camera.)I think the price needs to come down more to stimulate demand , but I dont know the margins and how feasible that is.

Example, I bought one extra 32Mb card for my camera. If it was 1/2 the price, over time I'd probably end up buying 3. At the current prices , I'm waitimg for it to fall before I buy another.
