    Flash Drives => Ready for Prime Time !!!

    I think you will find that Terry, Blackheath, Beerknurd and their Electricity bill reduction plans will find this interesting.

    I bet boot time on those types of HDD's would be pretty quick. I would get one when the time comes (that is if i ever find a job between now and then)

    The company I just left, Fujitsu, had already released NAND Laptops in Japan but the prices are still way too high - expect them to drop in 12months or so before being realistic!

    EDIT: and here's an old press release with the price difference (Ouch!) http://news.zdnet.co.uk/hardware/0,1...9284092,00.htm
