Holy shit. That's amazing. I wonder, given the size, if these are
less
prone to physical crashes than larger drives are?
Yeah, they've been putting hard drives in PCMCIA cards
for a while now. Digital cameras will be much more fun
with HDs in them. Of course, the RAM card makers don't
mind selling CompactFlash and SmartMedia cards.
Digital cameras are getting so incredibly inexpensive,
I'd guess we're about seven years from them being included
in cereal boxes.
