SanDisk: now has 4, 8 and 16 GB flash cards

So, now I'm drooling for a $100 flash card that will hold 16 GBytes. Right now, we're at about $170 for 2 GBytes of premium
flash, $200 for 4 GBytes of regular flash. Someday, each file will be a WAV file, split by shooting time. If you're in a jam for space,
the file can be compressed to MPEG2 by the camcorder. You'll be able to shoot in any format you like, including a version of DV or HDV with less compression. The tape drive will be a backup storage option, and capture will be six times faster.

Industrial grade CF and PC cards offer extended temperature ranges, extreme endurance, an MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) of 3 million hours, extended shock and vibration resistance, complete serialization and traceability, and a seven-year warranty. The standard grade cards offer a competitively priced product with high endurance and 1 million hours of MTBF.

Now all we need is a LANC based firewire device that is similar to the Firestore or Snapstream drives that will accept CF cards...
