Hi, Briana. I have always understood that 16 mb is the norm unless you pay
another 425 dollars to upgrade to 48 mb.
No mention has been made to me that the newer units contain that 48 mb disk
size.
I think at 425 dollars, it is overpriced as all you are really gaining is
32 mb, but I am going to pay the extra for it anyway.
It sure would be nice if it were included in all newly shipped units, though.
I think a larger cf card would also be nice. You can buy a 250 mb card for
about 50 dollars now a days.

Dear List,
On perusing the specifications and features of the vn/bn on PDI's website
during June, before ordering my vn, one was led to believe that the older
versions had 16 mb, but the release with the second mother board and for
future purchases has 48 mb on the flash disk.
However, my order to PDI was placed on 27 June and I received my supposedly
new release on 18 July 2003.
I paid the maximum price, but when I got the know-how to check the size of
the flash disk, obtained from this list about a week ago, I had to establish
that I only had the 16 mb flash disk.
Has anyone else experienced this?
If there is a specific date from which the bigger flash disk memory was
automatically shipped, one wonders why it is/was not indicated and
reflected in the price, perhaps by way of a discount to the unfortunate
victims whom otherwise are made to pay the same price for old stock.
The flash disk memory size also becomes a relevant issue to everyone using
large files, as the bug relating thereto is apparently not present in units
with the 48 mb flash disk.
If this matter was, and perhaps still is, an honest oversight on PDI's side,
it should be addressed without delay, in the interest of both PDI and
relevant customers.
Disappointed
Riana
