Orion, We have beaten the issue of Microdrive to death on this board when it was first announced and SNDK swooned. You are rehashing these same arguments. My opinion is not changed. Ausdauer

OrionX - The Enhanced Adaptive Battery Life Extender 2.0 power management technology minimizes power consumption and maximizes battery life, so a microdrive can be powered by standard "AA" batteries thats from the IBM page you reccomended. "AA" batteries (pural) hmmm? Well here we are on the holiday of a lifetime/the Michelin calender shoot now sand, vibration, dirt, rough handling ...you get the idea all the sort of things that precision miniature machinery rotating at super high speeds love. I don't think so... Still each to his own. There may be some who would like them ...but not many at least not in cameras ( or mobile phones either I woulkd guess). Regards, L
