I'm gonna take a quick break from reading subs to post something that caught my attention earlier today:<\/p>\n
StorCard<\/a>, a company chaired by one of the co-founders of Seagate, claims to be coming out with a 5GB disk drive the size and shape of a credit card, that's tough and flexible enough that you can carry it in your wallet with your other credit cards. (They also say all sorts of pie-in-the-sky stuff about this card making credit cards obsolete, and carrying your biometric data (fingerprints, etc) around on it and so on, but I don't put much credence in that.)<\/p>\n Each card will cost about $15; using the card requires a reader device (which will fit into a PC-card slot) which will cost about $100.<\/p>\n . . . Well, okay, I suspect that only the 100MB version of the card will cost $15 per card; the 5GB one will probably cost more, though I don't see any information about that. Still, this sounds too cool to be true. But PC World's article about it<\/a> says the cards should be available in the second half of 2003. Mighty cool if so.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m gonna take a quick break from reading subs to post something that caught my attention earlier today: StorCard, a…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-859","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/859","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=859"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/859\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=859"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=859"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kith.org\/jed\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=859"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
