Wow. Imagine 15GB of storage on your Pocket PC. Now stop imagining. 8O
"Toshiba's 1.8-inch HDD 15GB Type II PC Card hard disk drive packs high capacity into a PC Card format, providing additional portable storage and increased mobility for notebook PC users. The 15GB PC Card offers mobile computer users the highest capacity available and the most cost effective solution - especially when compared to other small-footprint HDDs. It's powerful, lightweight design make it an ideal "bridge" device for sharing data between systems such as two notebooks, a notebook and digital camera or other mobile gear. The drive also functions as an external hard disk drive with robust back-up storage capacities for large multimedia files and presentations, holding as much information as 3,472 floppy disks or more than 7 CDs."
MobilePlanet [affiliate] is listing a July 15th ship date. The only problem is that it's a little pricy at $499 -- one could get a 30GB iPod for the same price. On the other hand, I can't play movies or Ogg files on an iPod. :)
