SunDisk recently announced the introduction of a new high-capacity ATA Type III flashcard in capacities up to 175MB (350MB with file compression software). These Type III cards will not fit in the HP Palmtop's Type II card slot. However, this product should be of interest to Palmtop users because it is flashdisk technology and not a physical hard drive like the previous Type III devices. Because of this it may be possible to use the new SunDisk card in a Palmtop with a Type II-to-III adapter. As we find out more about this we will let you know.
SunDisk reports a mean time between failure rate of 500,000 hours for their flashcards. The new cards are not yet available to end users. Prices for volume OEM purchases of the 175MB card are currently $3,245 per card.
