Cheap 128mb Smartmedia


Holy crap, they've gone down even more!

Has anyone been slightly worried that Smart Media are beginning to be beaten by all the other cards with more potential for space?

I get the feeling they're being phased out, I'm going to do a mass buy! :eek:

Being phased out?

As I understand it there not being made in any great quantity and have not been for some time.
Dead as the dodo as a format goes I am afraid :(. Still, as £10 a pop it never hurts to have some spares.

I get a card with 128mb for 20€ (£13.77980) at my local store and I don't need to pay shipping costs this way. But sd-cards are much cheaper... :(

The local Walmarts in the US still carry lots of Smartmedia, at $50 a pop.
Ive still seen them in most stores like bestbuy and circuit city, so I think we are okay for another year or 2.
