    Price would be of main concern, but as other companies get into the higher capacity, they will try to outdo each other, bringing prices down--Hopefully

    It's probably going to happen.... That's why most manufacturers anticipate the product to be out around 2009-2010... Give them extra time to R&D then possibly reduce the price while perfecting the technology (increasing the capacity too? -rolleyes)

    wow, 128gb. that is so much memory.

    But if it was up to me, I think I'm going to stick to my 2-8gb flash memory. Don't want to lose everything at once if the flash crashes or something.

    I agree. A external HD is preferable. Harder to break too -lol

    Well.. they could put the card inside like a PDA or something small, as flash is more durable as HDD. And.. maybe as technology advances, we may see games in iPods and DAP's which may require more memory??

    Make flash-based laptop with it? Then it will be a lot more shock-resistant than now...

    Well, USB 3 is on its way mid 2008 to handle these flash memories! USB 3 is 10 times faster than USB 2.

    i thought that those 8 gig micro sd cards were very impressive already. Now theres a 128 gig flash memory... i didnt expect for that to come out until maybe 10 or 20 years later. If they use that for a hard drive and the transfer rates are high i would probably get a flash hard drive. they would definitley be smaller than the ones that we have now.

    I don't think it is going to take that long, 10 and 20 years is a very long time in the technology sector... You know that the personal computer, at least the ones we use nowadays (microprocessor), came into existence no more than half a decade ago, the internet is barely a decade old, and look where we are right now! not 5 years ago, TB is a new concept... and now there are already commercial 1 TB harddrives...

    So the product will more likely be released in a year or two...

    yea. she is right. When I invented the internet, no one knew what it was, then microcrap came along and put in explorer &*&(*&...* I love taking credit for things :)
