Memory Stick to overtake SmartMedia
Jun 15, 2001 at 04:00:00 GMT
 Sony
should be pretty happy with recently announced market share results. According
to a story in c|net, from just 7% of the flash storage market in Spring
2000 the little purple (or white) stick now (Spring 2001) commands some
25% of sales. Both Compact Flash and SmartMedia have suffered from the
competition losing 9% market share each. SmartMedia now represents just
32% of the flash storage market, it looks to me at least as though it
won't be long before Memory Stick overtakes SmartMedia. Sony also expect
a 256 MB version next year followed by 1 and 2 GB versions by 2003.
