[edit] "Installed Base"?
Re: [from the article] "Since these multi-card readers are becoming increasingly common, especially on new computers, the installed base of Smartmedia cards is still increasing and has never been larger as of 2006."
I don't understand what is meant by this phrase "installed base". TheScotch 07:18, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Dating
Re: [from the article]: "Both Toshiba and Samsung still make SmartMedia cards to be used in existing devices (up to 128 MB), and rebadged versions are still offered for sale by a wide variety of memory card makers including Lexar and Sandisk."
Since these sorts of things appear to be changing rapidly, I think it would help if all such statements were dated. Are both of the above statements true as of December 22, 2006? TheScotch 07:22, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] "Dominant Design question!"
As off late 2005. Do you think there's a dominant design in the flash memory market? Is there a dominant player (SanDisk, may be?) in the market? or the battle for the dominant design is still going on, and no single company has its design chosen as the dominant design yet?
[edit] Answer
SD And Memory Stick May Be Dominant For Most MP3 Players Besides IPOD and flash based players, Most Cameras Are Either SD or Compactflash and XD. Smartmedia Is Rare And Only Goes Up To 128mb w/out bankswitching I belive. So SD May Be Dominant. Offensiveandconfusing 15:38, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
