But it's a growing market. There are going to be lots of these things

the new Sound Devices two-trackers that write to CF media.
Does anyone yet make a battery powered hard drive with interface that
can plug into the CF slot and expand the capacity at reasonable cost?
If not, why not? (Rhetorical question.)
I think the "microdrive" concept is being overtaken by flash storage,
the price of which keeps relaxing. Solid-state's nonmechanical advantage
seems clear in the long run, unless I'm missing something.
Right, but for now I'd love to be able to attach a 2.5" laptop drive
of the many (tens or hundreds of) gigabyte variety via the CF
interface and not be concerned about the price of solid state or worry
about having enough chips to cover the weekend.
A Weibetech Firewire Dock thingy gets you that via FW or USB or both.

Very handy gadgets. Allow one to use raw drives like they were reels of
tape, but without the saturation. <g>
