Pardon me as I comment on my own writing, but its not "Sun"
that makes these, it is a company called "Sundisk". As I understand
it, all flash cards are manufactured by either Intel or Sundisk and
the rest of the companies who have their names on flash cards are
private labeling them from one of these two (usually Sundisk--the Intel
flash cards use a different method of recognizing the card which is
much less popular than Sundisks' "ATA" type cards. The only major
item that uses the Intel-type cards are the Apple Newtons).
