WTH would you do with a 2TB memory card?

This will become the modern day family's photo album.
Just one could hold every picture and video of you and your children growing up.

I also think that banks will start allowing you to diposite data, not just money.
Everyone would have thier own 'safe deposite drive' and people would copy thier photo album cards into it for safety.

Both are nice ideas.

The new specification is called SDXC and products with the new flash memory won’t likely reach the market until 2010. The organization’s press release explains that you could store 100 HD movies, 60 Hours of HD recording or 17,000 fine-mode photos on such a card. Read/write speeds you ask? Currently 104 megabytes per second and hopefully, by launch, will reach 300 megabytes per second.

This thing could hold all of my media and data combined even leaving some room to spare

.

If they manage to acomplish this, can you imagine the consequences. The netbook I was just planing to buy will be already obsolete, as with this they could make another one, lighter, more powerful, less power consuming, etc.

This is HUGE!, both literaly and figuratively

If a PSP equivalent came out I would fill it with Music, Videos, Games and a ton of Homebrew

As for the card you quoted, I would use it instead of an external Hard Drive :thumbup:
