Battery-powered MO datadump drive

MO drives may not be be all that sexy or popular these days, but Fujitsu has a neat battery-powered model coming out in Japan that incorporates an 8-in-1 card reader for dumping images from your digicam memory card. Size is 195 x 135 x 29 mm, and the MO drive section can also be detached for use as an external USB drive that runs off bus power. Your mileage may vary with this one depending on how cheap MO disks are where you are, however; in Japan a 1.3GB disk will only set you back about Y1,000.
