Lexar JumpDrive Firefly 4GB USB Flash Drive @ Mr.Gadget Australia

According to Cnet.com.au, our trusty Compact Flash memory cards are to be replaced with a new and faster card! Good news is that it could be available by as soon as next year; the bad news is that it may not be compatible with the current Compact Flash standard.

The new version, called CFast, has faster data-transfer speeds that could let photographers take more continuous shots without waiting for the camera to catch up, cut camera makers’ costs for built-in buffer memory, and make it swifter to review photos on a camera or copy them to a computer.

PCMCIA slots in laptops are now being replaced by ExpressCard slots which are faster and easier to use.

What is ExpressCard technology?
(http://www.expresscard.org/)

ExpressCard technology is the name of a new standard introduced by PCMCIA in spring 2003. The ExpressCard standard delivers thinner, faster and lighter modular expansion to desktop and notebook computer users. Consumers can add hardware capabilities such as memory, wired and wireless communications cards and security devices by simply inserting these modules into their systems. All ExpressCard slots accommodate modules designed to use either Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0, or the PCI Express standards. However, users of ExpressCard modules do not have to be familiar, or even aware of, the underlying technology being used by the module. The user experience is identical, whether the module uses PCI Express or USB 2.0.
