SanDisk Corporation today introduced the highest capacity yet for its small TransFlash memory module, a 256 megabyte (MB) unit that will help meet the demands of new feature phones for greater storage of digital music, video, digital photos and GPS navigation software. [addsig]

That's a really tiny memory card, hope SE uses it soon on phones.

I think it's pretty unlikely will adopt this medium. I think Motorola plan to use it in the MPX and future devices, though.

Surely Nokia will use it as well in their future fone models . . . as they already now have the one smaller than the size of the average MMC in their 7610 et al models!

the ms duo and ms duo pro are pretty small, but this is much smaller. moreover, memory stick is proprietary hardware of sony... and sony have spent a lot on its development/production, so i doubt if we're gonna see any transflash cards on se soon.
moreover its 256Mb, compared to 512Mb and more on pro duo cards.

Gotta go ask the manufacturers if they can take out the 41 MB mem in my k700 and solder that new chip in !

@plasma - yeah i agree with you. But just imagine 256 MB internal and 1 GB external in the new phones ! Hopefully in the P1000 ?
If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence of your attempt !!

Motorola use it in E398, transflash has half size of a SIM - pretty small but easy to lose and reviewer of that Motorola wasn't very satisfied, because due to it's tiny size it was difficult to handle. Not everything small is really good. ;-)
