Re: 4 GB compactflash cards
Jay, the first one above looks very much like the one I use.
I've seen this happen in computer memory as well. Usually it means a competitor has gotten their manufactoring plant on line and those that had the field pretty much to themselves start to dump so they don't get caught with a lot of surplus in the warehouse. Maybe China is about to come online and saturate the market... or more than likely the major players didn't sell as many CF cards as they thought they would for Christmas and now they are dumping the extras.
Even if they come out with new and bigger CF cards, the price on them is going to be very high for the first year or two, so I don't mind taking advantage of the 2 and 4 gig CF cards getting cheaper.
