Wait, wait -- you're telling us InPhase Technologies may be the latest and greatest poster child for
vaporware? Say it ain't so! After
promising (and
promising) a holographic storage solution for upwards of
three years now, the outfit is delaying its dead-to-the-world
Tapestry solution yet again, this time to late 2009. In theory, the company would introduce a drive that could record up to 300GB on a $180 CD-sized disc around this time next year, but with Blu-ray already up to 50GB and Royal Digital Media introducing a
100GB alternative, who's to say 300GB won't look puny by November '09? And besides, we're also hearing that GE's Polymer Systems Lab is developing a "layered approach to holographic storage" that will soon result in -- you guessed it -- 300GB discs. The difference? GE is a real company.
