To all:

Has anyone heard of plans for Hitachi to offer a 60 GB 1.8-inch minidrive
for hte x40?

Currently, the maximum limit on the Hitachi minidrive for the x40 is 40 GB.

Hitachi has released a 60 GB 1.8-inch drive, but the specifications don't
match the x40 minidrive. Also, Toshiba has released a 1.8-inch 60 GB drive
for a PC card slot. But the Toshiba drive works only on a laptop with a
double PC card slot. The x40 slot is a single PC card slot.

I asked Hitachi support about this, but all they would say was "keep
checking back to our Web site for an announcement."

So, with two 60 GB 1.8-inch drives now available, has anyone heard of a
timeline for a 60 GB drive for the x40?
