None that I currently know of, but I do like the idea. It would be a whole lot cheaper than compact flash memory. A good alternative would also be an LS-120meg floppy. Their are camera's that use regular 1.44 floppies, but that's not really anough space to deal with.

The problem with the floppy on the Sony cams is not so much space (25-40 pics per disk) it is speed. They need to drop enough RAM on the Camera to take several pictures in a row without having to wait for the disk each click.

They have upgraded the drives in the Sony's now to be 4X instead of the 2X of a year ago. This does speed it up a bit.
