Tiger's got that one new for $150. Sorry dude. Samsung 40nm Arch allows up to 64GB in CF. My point was that these larger cards were usually the first ones we'd see in advertisements and catalogs. Their supposed to NEW and HOT. Now we have to hunt for the larger cards. That's not right. But, it's what happens when a product goes from being an industry standard to, well, a niche (then to nothing). I'm not saying CF is dead yet. We'll see larger and larger cards for some time. Maybe even a few jumps in technology. But, I fear a sign-post has been passed. We'll be searching harder and harder for shrinking quantities of these super-capacity cards in years to come. Until one day, some pimple-faced geek at Best Buy says to me.. "CF-What?" I'll just pile my all CF cards in the box in the back of the garage with my 2.88M floppy drive and SCSI CD-ROM. I know.
