is the minisd market "huge"? I feel its pretty much dead-end, with microsd taking over the small end, and thus far, double the capacity on the SD end.
my totally non-technical reasons for thinking 4gb minisd-non-hc is completely doable:
1) there are 4gb SD cards.
2) there are 2gb microsd cards, which seem to be less than half the physical size of mini.
I really feel its just some strange licensing issue on SD's part (coupled with concern from the mem mfrs that the older devices that support minisd might not support 4gb anyways) that is keeping them from being officially mass-produced. |
