New 120MB and 320MB CompactFlash Cards Uh oh...looks like Iomega is caught in a timewarp again with its Flop! drive crippled at a puny 40MB. New CompactFLash cards being rolled out now blast Flop! in both capacity and speed. steves-digicams.com Pretec Shows 128MB CF Type II Card At Cebit 99 HANNOVER, Germany--March 18, 1999--Pretec Electronics Corporation, the creator of CompactI/O(tm) card, will be demonstrating the 128MB CompactFlash(tm) (CF+) card, the highest capacity CF+ card available in the world today, at Pretec booth (Booth No. E-2, Stand C16, Hall 9) here in CeBIT. Previous world record of the highest capacity CF+ card (80MB), also developed and manufactured exclusively by Pretec, is available now in production quantity to OEM customers at $200 each. Production of 128MB CF+ card is scheduled in April, and 320MB card will be sampling by 2nd half of 1999. Looks like Flop! is just another one of those technologies that never really quite caught on, and died a quiet little death in the gizmo graveyard of history.
