2.2 GB Microdrive for $254.50 USD

It looks like the first of the next-generation Microdrives are being released - 2.2 GB for $254.50 USD is 11.6 cents per MB on paper. Not bad at all! I had my IBM Microdrive go bad on me one month after the one year warranty was up, so I'm not sure I'd want to invest in another spinning hard disk. Still, 2.2 GB is a lot of storage for only $254.50 USD...
"When CompactFlash cards first came into the market, they were pretty good. You could get up to 256 megs of storage on something the size of a big postage stamp. Then came "The MicroDrives" -- even better -- more capacity in the same space. Well you haven't seen anything until you've seen the new Magicstor 2.2 gigabyte MicroDrive. You get more then DOUBLE the storage capacity for a comparably priced IBM MicroDrive! Great for Digital Cameras, PDA's or MP3 player's!!
The Magicstor drive provides 2.2 gigabytes of high-capacity, high-performance removable storage in a one-inch square MicroDrive form factor. You'll be amazed that they can put so much into so little of space!!! This Magicstor MicroDrive integrates with a variety of handheld devices through use of the industry-standard CF+ Type II (Microdrive format. Plus, its so small you can literally take it almost anywhere!! Geeks everywhere would love to have this high capacity MicroDrive, so be the first on your block with it!!! The Magicstor 2.2 gigabyte MicroDrive - get yours today!"
