4GB CompactFlash Memory--Wow!
Lexar Media, Inc. has just announced the world's first and only 4GB (you heard me right!) CompactFlash memory card. The 4GB card can store about 600 images captured in RAW mode using a 6-megapixel professional camera or about 45,000 JPEG images.
'The 4GB card is rated at 40X (6MB/sec) with Write Acceleration (WA) technology.
This is truly amazing since one of my previous laptops came with a 3GB hard disk (that was in 2000).
Unfortunately, you would have to mortgage your house in order to buy this card. The retail price of the new card is $1,499.
