What I find interesting when we get to >8GB flash is the compare to similar
RW media, say Blu-Ray RW?, if the FLASH USB prices drop further, then these
will be cheaper then an optical disk.
Of course BR-RW optical disks can be produced much cheaper, but with USB
FLASH you do not need a 200 Euro burner, and it works everywhere.

I can fit 3 or more hours high quality digital TV directly from sat on
an 8GB stick, will rotating media completely disappear perhaps?
Ah, but can you play it full speed?

I can't even play (at full speed) the 640x480 clips my camera produces, reading off an IDE-USB card reader!

I suppose Flash has better rewritability than CD-RW though...
