This could be interesting for all memory card speed junkies who follow TamsPalm and have a digital camera than can use SDHC cards. SanDisk, a memory card maker(most commonly associated with its slow-as-molasses blue SD cards) has recently announced two new models with ultra high speeds. The 4 GB model is said to write 20MB/sec, and the 8GB model manages still-respectable 9MB/sec(my old Gericom Laptop had a tenth of that…so go figure).
The big problem with these cards(lets forget the high price of about 200$ for now) is the need for high-speed devices and…well, 200$ for a memory card is hard to ignore.
