"SanDisk announced this week that Maycom Co., a Korean consumer-electronics manufacturer, is using its MultiMedia Card in a new MP3 player, while LG Electronics and Pontis are also designing the same form-factor flash card into their MP3 players. Meanwhile, Casio earlier this month revealed that its new portable Internet audio player, based on Windows CE and designed for Microsoft Corp.'s MS Audio, will use SanDisk's CompactFlash card. "SanDisk's Auclair, also an SDMI member, is currently acting as editor for an ad-hoc group within SDMI to define interface specifications between a so-called Licensed SDMI-Compliant Module (LCM) and portable devices. In SDMI jargon, LCM is defined as a protected environment where LCM systems — such as PCs, set-tops or Internet appliances — receive content, rules for content management and protection from a variety of input sources such as CDs, DVDs and secure Internet music. "Among many technology and business issues argued within SDMI, the interface is one of the least contentious, according to Auclair. The proposed spec is likely to okay any interface, including USB, parallel port and removable media like CompactFlash." Message 9257958

Aus - I would ahve bought the 100 but its not out yet. Having said that if there was a Cassio official in front of me now I would take the E-15 and shove right up his rear end. I have spent two whole days tryingto get this piece of crap to talk to my Portege 3015CT. It says its communicating but the CE software on the Portege just won't recognize the E-15. All I get is waiting for mobile device to connect? ??? BTW everywhere I go I see Lexar in great packaging. Calling themselves Digital Film in nice sharp boxes. Poor old SNDK still hasn't got any marketing yet. Why? Regards, L
