Hi,
I'm sure you're right. The whole idea of the "digital revolution" is
that you dont upgrade but buy new stuff. However, I'm sure more memory
can be pressed into the cameras without incresing the space. The whole
evolution of the elctronics world goes in the direction boudble the
stuff in a year or so on the same space as before, or alternatively
double the prestanda for the sme price as the the "worse capacity"
component.
So the problem is not if its doable its what the manufacturers want. I
heard recently a camera repairman complain that newer Canons and
Minoltas were not easily repaired and just made for consumption whereas
the other camera brands are repairable.
Cheers,
Ronald

So: I'd only expect a larger buffer in a new camera...
