I have wondered about this. I fill up a 32MB memory card pretty quickly when taking pictures at 3.1Mpixels. A single picture is usually around 1.1 to 1.3 MB, so that would be one floopy per picture. I wouldn't want to (1) carry that many floppies, (2) to forced to change the floppy after every picture and (3) feed-in all these (slow reading) floppies to my PC later. This made me think the floppy thing was not viable. How does it work out for you? Peter
