Toshiba to Launch new USB Flash Memory Series (http://www.toshiba.co.jp/about/press/2006_08/pr2901.htm)
I saw that yesterday and was very very curious about it. Price will probably be just plain stupid (if you can track one down).
I think this is only the beginning, there is lots of talk about offering 32 GB + units as replacements for hard drives in laptops for power and heat reasons. We should also see hybrid flash/plater drives soon as well, storing the most accessed data in flash for better access times, and less spin up on the drive.
Theres also a new SD format, totally incompatible with SD, but its 4GB "limit" has been wiped away.a 8GB SDHC card has been announced (not released).
