Review: IBM's 1GB Microdrive
The 1GB Microdrive offers plenty of capacity with the size and weight advantages of a flash memory card. It offers the best of both worlds as it serves that balance between capacity and size. It does it so well that it has a great competitive advantage over other storage media, one that can allow it to take over the digital music arena if leveraged correctly. There is just one issue IBM has to address very aggressively to achieve this - price.
