In short, Samsung has developed a new flash memory chip that holds a lot more data. From the article: "By putting together 16 of the new NAND chips it's possible to create a 32-gigabyte product that can store 8,000 MP3 audio files or 20 DVD movies."
Old news, 2 GB flash chips have been around for quite a while ... and Wikipedia is already distributing on flash cards. If you take one zipped txt file from all PG books that have txt files, the lot of it will go onto two 2 GB flash cards. By the time the first 4 GB flash cards come out, (and by the time I'll have thrown out all copyrighted books and all the books that I feel only a cruel and impish fate has wrenched away from the deserved oblivion,) I'll certainly build a `Pocket-PG'. This has been on my list for a long time. I wonder if M$ will sue over "Pocket-PG" :-) -- Marcello Perathoner webmaster@gutenberg.org
