You are right that CF II does not mean it is a microdrive and it was not my intention to imply that. I know that 4 and 6 GB Hitachi drives are still readily available and there are likely other brands available but I doubt that much interest remains for them today. The iPod mini was the largest single user of microdrives but they have been out of production for a few months now. In 1996 I bought my first digital camera and a large 8 mb PCMI Flash Card, it cost $200 back then <http://mypixel.ca/photo/Ricoh.jpg>. That card would hold 2 jpg images from a modern camera but most of were backing up on floppy disks (1.4 MB). In those days I had two computers one with a 600 MB hard-drive and the other with 1.6 GB today people have more RAM installed in their systems. Enough off topic rambling.
