I like though that they're actually looking to get it out later this year, normally when you read one of these articles about some new breakthrough technology, they make it sound like it's pretty much ready through the whole article, then at the end they say something like 5 years away. Then you normally never hear of it again. I also like the little inside the prototype video they had on their site, it reminded me of one of those ads you see in movies for some futuristic evil corporation. They also seemed to be hinting at DRM in that video too, but I guess at this point that's to be expected. |

There's an amazing new breakthrough in holographic laser super-cooled flux capacitor-based storage that stores 400TB per square inch and writes at 16GB/sec every month. I'll be amazed when I can go buy a multi-terabyte hard drive for the cost of a 300GB one now. |

Oh and appearantly, according to digg users, 20 mbps is a typo and it's actually supposed to be 20MB/s, which means, this could replace RAM as well as hard drives. And quite possibly change how computers are completely delt with and operate. |

damn I hope this isn't too expensive. Hell, I also hope it isn't so cheap I'll regret $100 for a 250GB hard disk. |
