Kelly – THOR works, and works better than they hoped (far more write/erase cycles). Unfortunately, they need a breakthrough on a critical aspect of the write technology (I'm sure you can figure out what I mean 😉 in order to make the device a reasonable size. They may have what they need soon. OTOH, others say that Write-Once drives and media will also come along, which will be too cheap to ignore as an alternative. PS: I'm watching a PBS show hosted by Ted Koppel right now… on future information distribution. Tom Wolfe, John Sculley, MIT people, etc. Really fascinating. Check your listings to see if it'll be on soon.
