I would much rather have solid state memory in a handheld, it is more reliable and getting cheaper by the day.

SD cards are awesome, harddrives...harddrives...we don't need no stinking harddrives.

Yep even thought flash memory sometimes can broke due to the finite number of writing cycles. But it's getting cheaper and cheaper and as being solid state it's not that fragile like harddrives. And consumes so much less power, is smaller in the size and has instantaneous access times.

At one point it will improve to such point the harddrives will be looking like the floppyies today.
