I remember working in PC Unlimited store at 1Utama, there was a 4MB CF Card that was RM600. Yes I actually sold one blink.gif

i recall my first digital camera back in highschool, it should be around year 1999 or 1998. sony maverica? something. using diskette, fill with 10-12 pic each diskette. forgotten is 0.1mp or 0.3mp. that time memory card is not even commercialized yet. then not long, compact flash mp3 was a hit, thats when i got myself a kodak MC3. (movie, camera, mp3) 3 in 1. and 16mb CF cost rm200!
