PNY Technologies new MicroHD will initially be available in massive 2.2GB and be followed later in the year with a 4.4GB storage capacity. The drive can be used in most digital cameras equipped with a CompactFlash (CF) Type II slot and in PDAs, notebooks or PC systems with PCMCIA card slots. The 2.2GB cards will be available for shipment in the second quarter of 2004 with an MSRP of $249.99.

“Because of its convenient CF Type II form factor and easy installation, PNY’s MicroHD will work the most popular portable electronic devices,” said Paul Wasek, senior marketing manager for flash media and peripherals. “Any digital photography professional should consider this type of storage alternative, because it allows the user to continue taking pictures once the memory card is used up. MicroHD offers one of the best combinations of storage capacity, portability, small-size and performance at such an affordable price.”

PNY’s digital media product line includes: the PNY Optima CompactFlash Professional Series, CompactFlash cards, Secure Digital cards, SmartMedia cards and MultiMedia cards as well as single and multi slot USB 2.0 card readers and PCMCIA adapters.
