The Cornice Dragon series micro hard drives, available in 8- and 10-gigabytes, will allow OEMs to offer thinner and higher-capacity consumer electronics (CE) devices while featuring industry-leading robustness, durability, and low power requirements for everyday consumer use. Audio/video players, mobile phones and personal storage devices will all be enhanced by the Dragon series micro hard drive."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/ekkie_Cornice-Dragon-Series-Photo.jpg" /><br /><br />With the growing use of cellphones as digital cameras and portable music players, this type of development should come as no surprise (Samsung has already been integrating micro drives into their most recent mobile phones). I still keep wondering though when we'll see these microdrives integrated into a Pocket PC device. Of course, we'd be introducing more "moving parts", but I'd certainly be very interested in a portable device that had elements of both solid-state RAM with the high-capacity storage.
