While the NAND-based MMCplus format hasn’t exactly reached SD status in terms of universal acceptance and recognition, ATP is unveiling a 4GB high capacity (HC) flavor to level up with its 4GB ProMax SDHC card. It sports a speed rating of 166x (25MB per second) and was designed to “maximize the performance of next generation digital devices requiring larger capacities and higher transfer rates” such as quick-shooting DSLRs. The card is also resistant to “water and extreme temperatures,” but similar to shoving an SDHC card into an SD-only reader, the HC format can’t be utilized by earlier MMCplus readers. Unsurprisingly, pricing and release information isn’t readily available, but you’ll probably see these in memory shops soon.

We’re not so massively fond of the whole U3 machine-independent application and computing package thing, but if there’s one thing we can get behind, it’s a big ol’ damned flash memory drive. Toshiba’s new TransMemory line, which they’re launching in November in sizes from 512MB to 4GB, are all well and good, but only the 16GB Limited Edition due in December would have gotten get us through the year (what with the occasional Vista build and Leopard beta and all). Of course, as with the other 8GB+ flash memory drives, we leave it to Toshiba to ensure we aren’t extorted for five or more figures in order to get our unworthy hands on one.
